چکیده

To characterize the microRNAs that contribute to the development of brace root, Solexa high-throughput sequencing of three libraries derived from tissues of node (N), nodes with just-emerged brace roots (NR), and nodes with just-emerged brace roots after IAA treatment (NRI) was performed. Total 650,793, 957,303 and 1,082,948 genome-matched unique reads were obtained in N, NR and NRI libraries, respectively. Further analysis confirmed the authenticity of 137 known miRNAs and the discovery of 159 novel miRNAs in maize. 14 conserved and 16 novel miRNAs differentially expressed in brace root, as well as 15 target genes, were identified and validated by qRT-PCR during maize brace root development. Moreover, we identified 9 miRNA precursor-matched novel sRNAs that may form miRNA clusters, as well as 24 nt siRNAs in the three libraries. In addition, we suggest that auxin represent a regulator in brace root development and can be regulated at the posttranscriptional level by miRNAs.

Identification of microRNAs in corpus luteum of pregnancy in buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) by deep sequencing

This study was aimed to identify miRNAs of corpus luteum (CL) in buffaloes during pregnancy. For this study, CL (n=2) were collected from gravid uteri of buffalo and RNA was isolated. Following this, the purity and integrity of RNA was checked and used for deep sequencing using Illumina Hiseq 2500 platform. The reads’ quality was checked prior to in silico analyses viz. identification of conser...

Characterization of microRNAs from goat (Capra hircus) by Solexa deep-sequencing technology.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are an important class of small noncoding RNAs that are highly conserved in plants and animals. Many miRNAs are known to mediate a myriad of cell processes, including proliferation and differentiation, via the regulation of some transcription and signaling factors, which are closely related to muscle development and disease. In this study, small RNA cDNA libraries of Boer goa...

An Expanded Maize Gene Expression Atlas based on RNA Sequencing and its Use to Explore Root Development.

Comprehensive and systematic transcriptome profiling provides valuable insight into biological and developmental processes that occur throughout the life cycle of a plant. We have enhanced our previously published microarray-based gene atlas of maize ( L.) inbred B73 to now include 79 distinct replicated samples that have been interrogated using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). The current version of ...

The Maize (Zea mays L.) AUXIN/INDOLE-3-ACETIC ACID Gene Family: Phylogeny, Synteny, and Unique Root-Type and Tissue-Specific Expression Patterns during Development

The plant hormone auxin plays a key role in the coordination of many aspects of growth and development. AUXIN/INDOLE-3-ACETIC ACID (Aux/IAA) genes encode instable primary auxin responsive regulators of plant development that display a protein structure with four characteristic domains. In the present study, a comprehensive analysis of the 34 members of the maize Aux/IAA gene family was performe...

Relationships Between Seedling Growth Rate and Yield of Maize Cultivars Under Normal and Water Stress Conditions

Abstract Effects of water stress on root and leaf growth rates and their relationships with yield under normal and water stress conditions were examined at the Greenhouse and Research Field of Faculty of Agriculture, Kerman University, Iran, using seven maize cultivars including SC-404, SC-704, BC-666, TC-647, DC-370, Jeta and Kordona. During a period of 14 days, water stress at -0.4 MPa was ...
