Manipulation of Temperature and Photoperiod Identifies Molecular Networks Associated with the Para- to Endo-dormant Transition in Leafy Spurge Crown Buds
Leafy spurge is a model for studying well-defined phases of dormancy in underground adventitious buds (UABs) of herbaceous perennial weeds, which is a primary factor allowing many invasive perennial weeds to escape conventional control measures. A 12-week ramp down in both temperature (27°C → 10°C) and photoperiod (16 h → 8 h light) is required to induce a transition from para- to endo-dormancy in UABs of leafy spurge. To evaluate the effects of photoperiod and temperature on molecular networks associated with this transition, we compared global transcriptome data-sets obtained from UABs of leafy spurge exposed to a ramp down in both temperature and photoperiod (RDtp) vs. a ramp down in temperature (RDt) alone. Analysis of transcriptome data-sets indicated that numerous genes associated with circadian clock, photoperiodism, flowering, and hormone responses (CCA1, COP1, HY5, MAF3, MAX2) were preferentially expressed during the transition from para- to endo-dormancy. Gene-set enrichment analyses highlighted metabolic pathways associated with ethylene, auxin, flavonoids, and carbohydrate metabolism; whereas, sub-network enrichment analyses identified hubs (CCA1, CO, FRI, mir172A, EINs, DREBs) of gene networks associated with carbohydrate metabolism, circadian clock, flowering, and stress and hormone responses during the transition to endodormancy. These results helped refine existing models for the transition to endodormancy in UABs of leafy spurge, which strengthened the roles of circadian clock associated genes, DREBs, COP1-HY5, carbohydrate metabolism, and involvement of hormones (ABA, ethylene, and strigolactones). Further, we propose that the RDtp treatment ultimately leads to a chain effect, responsive to photoperiod and temperature signaling, to synchronize molecular processes associated with the transition from para- to endo-dormancy. Overall design: Plant material, environmental treatments, and vegetative growth Leafy spurge plants were propagated from the uniform biotype (1984-ND001) and maintained in a greenhouse as described by Anderson and Davis (2004). Prior to the start of each experiment, plants were acclimated in a Conviron growth chamber (Model PGR15) for one week at 27°C, 16:8 h light:dark photoperiod. Each experiment was replicated four times, and each replicate contained 30 plants. Six plants from each replicate were used to determine vegetative growth rate, and crown buds from the remaining 24 plants were collected for transcriptome studies. All samples were collected between 11:00 and 13:00 a.m. to avoid diurnal variation. We previously established conditions for induction and release of dormancy phases under controlled environments (Doğramacı et al. 2010; Foley et al. 2009). To induce endodormancy, paradormant plants were subjected to a ramp-down in temperature (27°C → 10°C) and photoperiod (16 h → 8 h light), i.e., RDtp, for 12 weeks (Fig. 1, Exp-1). To distinguish the individual effects of temperature and photoperiod on molecular networks involved in endodormancy induction (see Fig. 1, Exp-2), we compared three-month old paradormant plants subjected to a ramp-down in temperature (27°C → 10°C) under constant photoperiod (16 h light) for 12 weeks (i.e., RDt) to RDtp plants. Additionally, a set of paradormant plants were kept under constant temperature and light (27°C, 16 h light) as a control. At the end of each treatment, the aerial portion of the plant was decapitated to determine the dormancy status of the crown buds by their vegetative growth rate in the greenhouse, as described by Foley et al. (2009). New vegetative shoot growth was recorded weekly; results were analyzed using the generalized linear mixed model (PROC GLIMMIX) procedure of SAS 9.2, and 95% confidence intervals for treatment by week means were generated. Transcriptome analyses At the end of each treatment, crown buds were collected from intact plants to study transcriptome profiles and were stored at -80°C. RNA extraction, cDNA synthesis and fluorescent labeling, microarray hybridization using ~23K element arrays, and spot intensity analyses were performed as previously described (Doğramacı et al. 2010). Transcriptome data obtained from Exp-1 and -2 (Fig. 1) was used for various bioinformatics analysis. GeneMaths XT 2.1 software was used to normalize the arrays, to conduct statistical analyses, and to generate Venn diagrams as previously described by Doğramacı et al. (2010). Expression data for both Exp-1 and -2 are deposited at Gene Expression Omnibus (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/) as GEO dataset query GSE19217 and GSE??, respectively. The entire data set was further analyzed using Ariadne Pathway Studio 7 Software-Resnet Plant Version 2.1 (Ariadne Genomics Inc., Rockville, MD, USA) to obtain Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) and Sub Network Enrichment Analysis (SNEA). GSEA is used to determine if predefined sets of genes are over-represented (P
