“…Recently, Ma et al . 47 found that low temperature sensing in rice was related to changes in Ca 2+ influx during cold treatment, and the change in Ca 2+ influx was controlled by COLD1, a regulator of G‐protein signaling. In this study, the expression levels of HbCPK and HbCRK genes (Ca 2+ sensors) were examined under cold stress.…”

The calcium‐dependent protein kinase (CDPK) and CDPK‐related kinase gene families in Hevea brasiliensis—comparison with five other plant species in structure, evolution, and expression

et al. 2016

Calcium‐dependent protein kinases (CDPKs or CPKs) play important roles in various physiological processes of plants, including growth and development, stress responses and hormone signaling. Although the CDPK gene family has been characterized in several model plants, little is known about this gene family in Hevea brasiliensis (the Para rubber tree). Here, we characterize the entire H. brasiliensis CDPK and CDPK‐related kinase (CRK) gene families comprising 30 CDPK genes (HbCPK1 to 30) and nine CRK genes (HbCRK1 to 9). Structure and phylogeny analyses of these CDPK and CRK genes demonstrate evolutionary conservation in these gene families across H. brasiliensis and other plant species. The expression of HbCPK and HbCRK genes was investigated via Solexa sequencing in a range of experimental conditions (different tissues, phases of leaf development, ethylene treatment, and various abiotic stresses). The results suggest that HbCPK and HbCRK genes are important components in growth, development, and stress responses of H. brasiliensis. Parallel studies on the CDPK and CRK gene families were also extended to five other plant species (Arabidopsis thaliana, Oryza sativa, Populus trichocarpa, Manihot esculenta, and Ricinus communis). The CDPK and CRK genes from different plant species that exhibit similar expression patterns tend to cluster together, suggesting a coevolution of gene structure and expression behavior in higher plants. The results serve as a foundation to further functional studies of these gene families in H. brasiliensis as well as in the whole plant kingdom.

The wolf spider Pardosa pseudoannulata is a dominant predator in paddy ecosystem and an important biological control agent of rice pests. Temperature represents a primary factor influencing its biology and behavior, although the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. To understand the response of P. pseudoannulata to temperature stress, we performed comparative transcriptome analyses of spider adults exposed to 10°C and 40°C for 12 h. We obtained 67,725 assembled unigenes, 21,765 of which were annotated in P. pseudoannulata transcriptome libraries, and identified 905 and 834 genes significantly up‐ or down‐regulated by temperature stress. Functional categorization revealed the differential regulation of transcription, signal transduction, and metabolism processes. Calcium signaling pathway and metabolic pathway involving respiratory chain components played important roles in adapting to low temperature, whereas at high temperature, oxidative phosphorylation and amino acid metabolism were critical. Differentially expressed ribosomal protein genes contributed to temperature stress adaptation, and heat shock genes were significantly up‐regulated. This study represents the first report of transcriptome identification related to the Araneae species in response to temperature stress. These results will greatly facilitate our understanding of the physiological and biochemical mechanisms of spiders in response to temperature stress.

“…Low temperature is one of the most common environmental stress factors; it can affect rice architecture and seed germination, slow the growth rate, delay seed maturation, cause male sterility, decrease the seed setting rate, and ultimately reduce the rice yield (Fujino and Matsuda 2010;Fujino et al 2008;Ma et al 2015;Saito et al 2004Saito et al , 2010Suh et al 2010). Cold stress is a major factor contributing to reduced rice yield in temperate and high-altitude regions.…”

“…Additionally, cold stress at the reproductive stage can negatively affect grain quality and production (Lee 2001;Xu et al 2008). Therefore, improving the cold tolerance of rice is an important objective in rice breeding, not only to maintain rice yields in cool regions, but also to expand the cultivation area of rice into northern areas or high-altitude regions with low temperatures (Ma et al 2015). Consequently, cold-tolerant rice cultivars would benefit grain production and contribute to food security and continuing development.…”

“…Most bi-parental populations used in QTL analyses have been derived from a cross between a cold-tolerant japonica variety and a cold-sensitive indica variety; consequently, most QTLs associated with cold tolerance are derived from the japonica parent (Andaya and Mackill 2003;Kuroki et al 2007;Ma et al 2015;Zhu et al 2015). From these QTLs, several genes have been cloned using recombinant inbred lines (RILs) and backcross inbred line (BILs) (Ma et al 2015;Saito et al 2010;Zhang et al 2014). Among the genes cloned so far, LTG3-1 is related to tolerance at the germination stage; this gene encodes a protein of unknown function that may be involved in tissue weakening (Fujino et al 2008).…”

Key message A region containing three genes on chromosome 1 of indica rice was associated with cold tolerance at the bud burst stage; these results may be useful for breeding cold-tolerant lines. Abstract Low temperature at the bud burst stage is one of the major abiotic stresses limiting rice growth, especially in regions where rice seeds are sown directly. In this study, we investigated cold tolerance of rice at the bud burst stage and conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) based on the 5K rice array of 249 indica rice varieties widely distributed in China. We improved the method to assess cold tolerance at the bud burst stage in indica rice, and used severity of damage (SD) and seed survival rate (SR) as the cold-tolerant indices. Population structure analysis demonstrated that the Chinese indica panel was divided into three subgroups. In total, 47 significant single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) loci associated with SD and SR, were detected by association mapping based on mixed linear model. Because some loci overlapped between SD and SR, the loci contained 13 genome intervals and most of them have been reported previously. A major QTL for cold tolerance on chromosome 1 at the position of 31.6 Mb, explaining 13.2% of phenotypic variation, was selected for further analysis. Through LD decay, GO enrichment, RNA-seq data, and gene expression pattern analyses, we identified three genes (LOC_Os01g55510, LOC_Os01g55350 and LOC_Os01g55560) that were differentially expressed between cold-tolerant and cold-sensitive varieties, suggesting they may be candidate genes for cold tolerance. Together, our results provide a new method to assess cold tolerance in indica rice, and establish the foundation for isolating genes related to cold tolerance that could be used in rice breeding.
