Abstract Background: Phosphorus (P) is essential for plant growth and development, and low-phosphorus (LP) stress is a major factor limiting the growth and yield of soybean. Recently, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been reported to be key regulators in response to stress conditions in plants. In soybean, however, how LP stress mediates biogenesis of lncRNAs remains unclear. Results: In this study, to explore the response mechanisms of lncRNAs to LP stress, we used the roots of two representative soybean genotypes with opposite P deficiency responsiveness, a P-sensitive genotype (Bogao) and a P-tolerant genotype (NN94156), to construct RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) libraries. In total, 4,166 novel lncRNAs including 525 differently expressed (DE) lncRNAs were identified across two genotypes at different P levels. GO and KEGG analyses indicated that numerous DE lncRNAs might be involved in diverse biological processes of phosphate, such as lipid metabolic process, catalytic activity, cell membrane formation, signal transduction, nitrogen fixation. Moreover, lncRNA-mRNA-miRNA and lncRNA-mRNA networks were constructed and several promising lncRNAs were identified, which may have highly valuable for further analysis the mechanism in response to LP stress in soybean.Conclusions: These results revealed that LP stress can significantly alter the genome-wide profiles of lncRNAs, especially for P sensitive genotype Bogao. Our findings increase the understanding and provides new insights into the function of lncNRAs responses to P stress in soybean.

Insight Into

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) refer to a class of RNA molecules that are longer than 200 nucleotides and do not encode proteins. Numerous lncRNAs have recently emerged as important regulators of many biological processes in animals and plants, including responses to environmental stress and pathogens. Botryosphaeria dieback is one of the more severe grapevine trunk diseases worldwide. However, how lncRNAs function during Botryosphaeriaceae infection is largely unknown. We performed high-throughput RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) of susceptible and more tolerant grapevine cultivars infected with Lasiodiplodia theobromae. Overall, we predicted 1826 novel candidate lncRNAs, including long intergenic non-coding RNAs (lincRNAs) and natural antisense transcripts (lncNATs). The data reveal the functions of a set of lncRNAs that were differentially expressed between the resistant cultivar Merlot and the susceptible cultivar Cabernet Franc. Several lncRNAs were predicted to be precursors for grape microRNAs involved in the L theobromae infection. These results provide new insight into the lncRNAs of grapevine that are involved in the response to L theobromae infection.

Systematic Identification

Abstract Key message This study showed the systematic identification of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) involving in flag leaf senescence of rice, providing the possible lncRNA-mRNA regulatory relationships and lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA ceRNA networks during leaf senescence. Abstract LncRNAs have been reported to play crucial roles in diverse biological processes. However, no systematic identification of lncRNAs associated with leaf senescence in plants has been studied. In this study, a genome-wide high throughput sequencing analysis was performed using rice flag leaves developing from normal to senescence. A total of 3953 lncRNAs and 38757 mRNAs were identified, of which 343 lncRNAs and 9412 mRNAs were differentially expressed. Through weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), 22 continuously down-expressed lncRNAs targeting 812 co-expressed mRNAs and 48 continuously up-expressed lncRNAs targeting 1209 co-expressed mRNAs were considered to be significantly associated with flag leaf senescence. Gene Ontology results suggested that the senescence-associated lncRNAs targeted mRNAs involving in many biological processes, including transcription, hormone response, oxidation–reduction process and substance metabolism. Additionally, 43 senescence-associated lncRNAs were predicted to target 111 co-expressed transcription factors. Interestingly, 8 down-expressed lncRNAs and 29 up-expressed lncRNAs were found to separately target 12 and 20 well-studied senescence-associated genes (SAGs). Furthermore, analysis on the competing endogenous RNA (CeRNA) network revealed that 6 down-expressed lncRNAs possibly regulated 51 co-expressed mRNAs through 15 miRNAs, and 14 up-expressed lncRNAs possibly regulated 117 co-expressed mRNAs through 21 miRNAs. Importantly, by expression validation, a conserved miR164-NAC regulatory pathway was found to be possibly involved in leaf senescence, where lncRNA MSTRG.62092.1 may serve as a ceRNA binding with miR164a and miR164e to regulate three transcription factors. And two key lncRNAs MSTRG.31014.21 and MSTRG.31014.36 also could regulate the abscisic-acid biosynthetic gene BGIOSGA025169 (OsNCED4) and BGIOSGA016313 (NAC family) through osa-miR5809. The possible regulation networks of lncRNAs involving in leaf senescence were discussed, and several candidate lncRNAs were recommended for prior transgenic analysis. These findings will extend the understanding on the regulatory roles of lncRNAs in leaf senescence, and lay a foundation for functional research on candidate lncRNAs.

Phosphorus is known as a key element associated with growth, energy, and cell signaling. In plants, phosphate transporters (PHTs) are responsible for moving and distributing phosphorus in cells and organs. PHT genes have been genome-wide identified and characterized in various plant species, however, these genes have not been widely identified based on available genomic data in Camellia sativa, which is an important oil seed plant. In the present study, we found 66 PHT genes involved in phosphate transporter/translocate in C. sativa. The recognized genes belonged to PHTs1, PHTs2, PHTs4, PHOs1, PHO1 homologs, glycerol-3-PHTs, sodium dependent PHTs, inorganic PHTs, xylulose 5-PHTs, glucose-6-phosphate translocators, and phosphoenolpyruvate translocators. Our finding revealed that PHT proteins are divers based on their physicochemical properties such as Isoelectric point (pI), molecular weight, GRAVY value, and exon-intron number(s). Besides, the expression profile of PHT genes in C. sativa based on RNA-seq data indicate that PHTs are involved in response to abiotic stresses such as cold, drought, salt, and cadmium. The tissue specific expression high expression of PHO1 genes in root tissues of C. sativa. In additions, four PHTs, including a PHT4;5 gene, a sodium dependent PHT gene, and two PHO1 homolog 3 genes were found with an upregulation in response to aforementioned studied stresses. In the current study, we found that PHO1 proteins and their homologs have high potential to post-translation modifications such as N-glycosylation and phosphorylation. Besides, different cis-acting elements associated with response to stress and phytohormone were found in the promoter region of PHT genes. Overall, our results show that PHT genes play various functions in C. Sativa and regulate Camellia responses to external and intracellular stimuli. The results can be used in future studies related to the functional genomics of C. sativa.

Genome-wide RNA sequencing has shown that only a small fraction of the human genome is transcribed into protein-coding mRNAs. While once thought to be “junk” DNA, recent findings indicate that the rest of the genome encodes many types of non-coding RNA molecules with a myriad of functions still being determined. Among the non-coding RNAs, long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) and enhancer RNAs (eRNA) are found to be most copious. While their exact biological functions and mechanisms of action are currently unknown, technologies such as next-generation RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) and global nuclear run-on sequencing (GRO-seq) have begun deciphering their expression patterns and biological significance. In addition to their identification, it has been shown that the expression of long non-coding RNAs and enhancer RNAs can vary due to spatial, temporal, developmental, or hormonal variations. In this review, we explore newly reported information on estrogen-regulated eRNAs and lncRNAs and their associated biological functions to help outline their markedly prominent roles in estrogen-dependent signaling.

AbstractLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are the master regulators of numerous biological processes. Hypoxia causes oxidative stress with severe and detrimental effects on brain function and acts as a critical initiating factor in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). From the RNA-Seq in the forebrain (Fb), midbrain (Mb), and hindbrain (Hb) regions of hypoxic and normoxic zebrafish, we identified novel lncRNAs, whose potential cis targets showed involvement in neuronal development and differentiation pathways. Under hypoxia, several lncRNAs and mRNAs were differentially expressed. Co-expression studies indicated that the Fb and Hb regions’ potential lncRNA target genes were involved in the AD pathogenesis. In contrast, those in Mb (cry1b, per1a, cipca) were responsible for regulating circadian rhythm. We identified specific lncRNAs present in the syntenic regions between zebrafish and humans, possibly functionally conserved. We thus identified several conserved lncRNAs as the probable regulators of AD genes (adrb3b, cav1, stat3, bace2, apoeb, psen1, s100b).

Abstract Cold and drought stresses seriously affect cassava (Manihot esculenta) plant growth and yield. Recently, long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as key regulators of diverse cellular processes in mammals and plants. To date, no systematic screening of lncRNAs under abiotic stress and their regulatory roles in cassava has been reported. In this study, we present the first reference catalog of 682 high-confidence lncRNAs based on analysis of strand-specific RNA-seq data from cassava shoot apices and young leaves under cold, drought stress and control conditions. Among them, 16 lncRNAs were identified as putative target mimics of cassava known miRNAs. Additionally, by comparing with small RNA-seq data, we found 42 lncNATs and sense gene pairs can generate nat-siRNAs. We identified 318 lncRNAs responsive to cold and/or drought stress, which were typically co-expressed concordantly or discordantly with their neighboring genes. Trans-regulatory network analysis suggested that many lncRNAs were associated with hormone signal transduction, secondary metabolites biosynthesis, and sucrose metabolism pathway. The study provides an opportunity for future computational and experimental studies to uncover the functions of lncRNAs in cassava.
