Identification of novel genes expressed in Brassica napus during leaf senescence and in response to oxidative stress
نویسندگان
چکیده مقاله:
Senescence is a genetically regulated oxidative process that involves a general degradation of cellular structures and enzymes and the mobilization of the products of degradation to other parts of the plant. The cDNA-AFLP (cDNA-Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism) analysis has been used under stringent PCR conditions afforded by ligation of adapters to restriction fragments, and the use of specific primer sets. It was of interest to analyse the proportion of senescence-enhanced genes in Brassica napus (CV Falcon) that do respond to different stress signals and to determine whether other known stress response genes are also expressed during leaf senescence or in response to treatments that increase ROS (Reactive Oxygen Species). The cDNA-AFLP technique uses the standard AFLP protocol on a cDNA template. Total RNA was extracted from mature leaves treated with Ascorbic Acid (As-A), silver nitrate (AgNO3), UV-B irradiation, combined treatment (As-A/AgN03), (As-A/UV-B) as well as untreated control and senescence stage3 (S3). The first and double-stranded cDNAs were synthesised by PCR amplification. The result shows the expression pattern for 30 genes that were identified on the original cDNA-AFLP gel. Each gene that was identified as a band on the cDNA-AFLP gel and successfully cloned was characterised by both sequencing and expression analysis using hybridisation technique. The clone6 has high similarity to a DNA-binding protein that acts as a transcription factor and can be an important component of signalling pathways. This gene exhibits a senescence-enhanced expression and is highly induced by UV-B but not by AgNO3. The northern hybridisation results for this gene in different organs showed high expression in flowers, pod and senescing leaves and no expression in green leaves and roots. The combined treatments had large effect on the expression of clone9. The expression pattern for this gene showed high transcript level in roots and flowers, low level in early senescing leaves and no expression in pod, mature leaves and late senescing leaves.

Comparative Analysis of the Brassica napus Root and Leaf Transcript Profiling in Response to Drought Stress
Drought stress is one of the major abiotic factors affecting Brassica napus (B. napus) productivity. In order to identify genes of potential importance to drought stress and obtain a deeper understanding of the molecular mechanisms regarding the responses of B. napus to dehydration stress, we performed large-scale transcriptome sequencing of B. napus plants under dehydration stress using the Il...
متن کاملExpression of senescence-enhanced genes in response to oxidative stress.
Expression of the LSC54 gene, encoding a metallothionein protein, has been shown previously to increase during leaf senescence and cell death. Evidence is presented in this paper to indicate that the extent of LSC54 expression is related to levels of oxidative stress in the tissues. Treatment of Arabidopsis cotyledon and leaf tissues with the catalase inhibitor, 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole, or with ...

Monoterpenes, which are among the major components of plant essential oils, are known for their ecological roles as well for pharmaceutical properties. Geraniol, an acyclic monoterpene induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis/senescence in various cancer cells and plants; however, the genes involved in the process and the underlying molecular mechanisms are not well understood. In this study, we...
متن کاملLeaf senescence and nitrogen remobilization efficiency in oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.).
Despite its worldwide economic importance for food (oil, meal) and non-food (green energy and chemistry) uses, oilseed rape has a low nitrogen (N) use efficiency (NUE), mainly due to the low N remobilization efficiency (NRE) observed during the vegetative phase when sequential leaf senescence occurs. Assuming that improvement of NRE is the main lever for NUE optimization, unravelling the cellul...

Drought stress can directly inhibit seedling establishment in canola (Brassica napus), resulting in lower plant densities and reduced yields. To dissect this complex trait, 140 B. napus accessions were phenotyped under normal (0.0 MPa, S0) and water-stressed conditions simulated by polyethylene glycol (PEG) 6000 (-0.5 MPa, S5) in a hydroponic system. Phenotypic variation and heritability indica...
