项目摘要
PI: Matthew Evans (Carnegie Institution of Washington)CoPIs: Donald Auger (South Dakota State University; subawardee), John Fowler and Scott Givan (Oregon State University; subawardees), Erik Vollbrecht (Iowa State University; subawardee)Collaborator: Kelly Beck, Gabriel Garcia (Stanford University; subawardees)An understanding of the genetic basis of gametophyte function will have important implications for agriculture, as gametophytes are central to plant reproduction. The female and male gametophytes make up the haploid phase of the angiosperm life cycle, which immediately succeeds meiosis and precedes formation of the seed (embryo and endosperm). Although gametophytes are small and undergo few cell divisions, they are crucial for reproduction, as they produce gametes, control the fertilization process, and influence development of the seed. However, because mutations that are deleterious to these haploid tissues are difficult to recover and maintain, relatively little is known about the genetic and cellular mechanisms underlying gametophyte function and development, especially in crop plants. This project seeks to overcome this limitation using genetic tools unique to the model crop Zea mays (maize) to accomplish a genomic-scale investigation of gametophytically-required genes. Trisomic stocks that transmit duplicate chromosomal regions through the gametophyte will be used to screen for Activator transposon-tagged gametophyte-lethal mutants. The phenotype of these mutants will be characterized in male and female gametophytes, and the corresponding DNA sequences of the mutated genes identified. Verification of the identity of a select group of candidate genes will be accomplished using multiple alleles and RNA expression analyses. Complementary aims in expression profiling of gametophytes and in bioinformatics - to identify orthologous genes in other plant models and integrate the data generated by the project - will allow an assessment of the genetic basis of gametophyte function. Finally, the ability to predict gametophytic functions across species boundaries will be tested using RNA interference to target select genes in the dicot model Arabidopsis thaliana. Broader Impacts:This project is relevant to many agricultural objectives seeking to influence plant reproduction - for example, controlling pollen fertility for hybrid seed production, limiting pollen-mediated transgene flow, and inducing apomixis. Because the tools and stocks created, and sequences generated, will be freely available to the scientific community, the project will enable other researchers to better investigate gametophytes through creation of a gametophyte-specific sequence-indexed mutant collection. All stocks created by the project will be deposited in the Maize Coop Stock Center (maizecoop.cropsci.uiuc.edu). All Ac transposon flanking sequences will be searchable by BLAST, both at PlantGDB (www.plantgdb.org), and at the project''s database: ZGamDB (maizegametophyte.org). Phenotypic and expression data will also be accessible at ZGamDb. For long-term storage and broad community access, phenotypic and genetic data will be incorporated into MaizeGDB (www.maizegdb.org), and expression data will be deposited at the Gene Expression Omnibus (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo) and the Plant Expression Database (www.plexdb.org).The project will help train 10 undergraduates to serve as science mentors for K-12 students, through exposing them to plant science research. In partnership with Stanford University''s Haas Center for Public Service, these undergraduate mentors will be placed in communities with large populations from under-represented groups, and help develop science experiences for K-12 students. In addition, the project will train two postdoctoral researchers and a graduate student in genomic-scale approaches to plant biology, and will introduce undergraduates and high school students to genomic science.
项目负责人:马修·埃文斯(华盛顿卡内基研究所)合作伙伴:唐纳德·奥格(南达科他州立大学,次获奖),约翰·福勒和斯科特·吉文(俄勒冈州立大学,次获奖),埃里克·沃尔布雷希特(爱荷华州立大学,次获奖)合作者:凯利·贝克,加布里埃尔·加西亚(斯坦福大学,次获奖)对配子体功能的遗传基础的理解将对农业产生重要影响,因为配子体是植物繁殖的核心。雌配子体和雄配子体构成被子植物生命周期的单倍体阶段,在减数分裂后立即完成,并先于种子(胚胎和胚乳)的形成。虽然配子体很小,很少进行细胞分裂,但它们对生殖至关重要,因为它们产生配子,控制受精过程,影响种子的发育。然而,由于对这些单倍体组织有害的突变难以恢复和维持,因此对配子体功能和发育的遗传和细胞机制知之甚少,特别是在作物植物中。本项目旨在利用模式作物Zea mays(玉米)特有的遗传工具来克服这一限制,完成配子体所需基因的基因组规模研究。通过配子体传递重复染色体区域的三体种群将用于筛选激活子转座子标记的配子体致死突变体。这些突变体的表型将在雄性和雌性配子体中进行表征,并鉴定出突变基因的相应DNA序列。验证一组选择的候选基因的身份将完成使用多个等位基因和RNA表达分析。配子体表达谱和生物信息学的互补目标——识别其他植物模型中的同源基因并整合项目产生的数据——将允许对配子体功能的遗传基础进行评估。最后,在拟南芥dicot模型中,利用RNA干扰靶向选择基因来测试跨物种边界预测配子体功能的能力。更广泛的影响:该项目与许多寻求影响植物繁殖的农业目标相关-例如,控制杂交种子生产的花粉肥力,限制花粉介导的转基因流动,以及诱导无融合。由于创建的工具和种群以及生成的序列将免费提供给科学界,因此该项目将使其他研究人员能够通过创建配子体特异性序列索引突变集合来更好地研究配子体。该项目创建的所有库存将存入玉米鸡舍库存中心(maizecoop.cropsci.uiuc.edu)。所有Ac转座子侧翼序列都可以通过BLAST在PlantGDB (www.plantgdb.org)和该项目的数据库ZGamDB (maizegametophyte.org)上进行搜索。表型和表达数据也将在ZGamDb上访问。为了长期存储和广泛的社区访问,表型和遗传数据将被纳入MaizeGDB (www.maizegdb.org),表达数据将被存储在基因表达综合数据库(www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo)和植物表达数据库(www.plexdb.org).该项目将帮助培训10名本科生担任K-12学生的科学导师,让他们接触植物科学研究。与斯坦福大学哈斯公共服务中心合作,这些本科生导师将被安置在人口众多的社区,帮助K-12学生发展科学经验。此外,该项目将培养两名博士后研究员和一名植物生物学基因组尺度方法的研究生,并将向本科生和高中生介绍基因组科学。
