Transcriptomes and Proteomes Define Gene Expression Progression in Pre-meiotic Maize Anthers
Plants lack a germ line; consequently, during reproduction adult somatic cells within flowers must switch from mitotic proliferation to meiosis. In maize (Zea mays L.) anthers, hypoxic conditions in the developing tassel trigger pre-meiotic competence in the column of pluripotent progenitor cells in the center of anther lobes, and within 24 hr these newly specified germinal cells have patterned...
متن کاملSpatiotemporally dynamic, cell-type-dependent premeiotic and meiotic phasiRNAs in maize anthers.
Maize anthers, the male reproductive floral organs, express two classes of phased small-interfering RNAs (phasiRNAs). PhasiRNA precursors are transcribed by RNA polymerase II and map to low-copy, intergenic regions similar to PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) in mammalian testis. From 10 sequential cohorts of staged maize anthers plus mature pollen we find that 21-nt phased siRNAs from 463 loci ap...
متن کاملTranscriptome profiling of maize anthers using genetic ablation to analyze pre-meiotic and tapetal cell types.
Oligonucleotide arrays were used to profile gene expression in dissected maize anthers at four stages: after-anther initiation, at the rapid mitotic proliferation stage, pre-meiosis, and meiotic prophase I. Nearly 9200 sense and antisense transcripts were detected, with the most diverse transcriptome present at the pre-meiotic stage. Three male-sterile mutants lacking a range of normal cell typ...
متن کاملMutator transposon activity reprograms the transcriptomes and proteomes of developing maize anthers.
Despite the high conservation of anther gene expression patterns across maize lines, Mu transposition programmed by transcriptionally active MuDR results in a 25% change in the transcriptome, monitored over 90 h of immature anther development, without altering the morphology, anatomy or pace of development. Most transcriptome changes are stage specific: cases of suppression of normal transcript...
متن کاملSerial-Section Analysis of Clustering within Anthers of Maize Microsporocytes with Specific Crossovers.
The distribution within anthers of maize plants of microsporocytes of differing crossover class was studied by application of the serial-sectioning technique to plants heterozygous for a paracentric inversion. In such material, cells with four-strand double crossovers within the inversion are distinguishable from cells with other classes of crossovers within the inverted region and from cells w...
