Gene enolase2 (EN02) is important in resistance to abiotic stress in various organisms. ENO2 T-DNA insertion mutant (enoZ) plants of Arabidopsis thaliana showed complete susceptibility to sodium chloride treatment when were analyzed either as whole plants or by measuring root growth during NaCl treatment. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR (RT-qPCR) was performed to investigate the expression profile of EN02 in response to NaCl stress in Arabidopsis. The transcript level of EN02 was rapidly elevated in 300 mmol L-1 NaCl treatment. ENO2 also responded to 300 mmol L 1 NaCl treatment at the protein level. To illuminate the mechanism underlying EN02 resistance to salt at the transcriptional level, we studied the wild-type and enoZ Arabidopsis lines that were treated with 300 mmol L 1 NaCl for 18 h using 454 GS FLX, which resulted in an expressed sequence tag (EST) dataset. A total of 961 up-regulated and 746 down-regulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in the pairwise comparison w-r-18 h:eno2^-18 h. The DEGs were identified and functionally annotated using the databases of Gene Ontology (GO) and the Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG). The identified unigenes were subjected to GO analysis to determine biological, molecular, and cellular functions. The biological process was enriched in a total of 20 GO terms, the cellular component was enriched in 13 GO terms, and the molecular function was enriched in 11 GO terms. Using KEGG mapping, DEGs with pathway annotations contributed to 115 pathways. The top 3 pathways based on a statistical analysis were biosynthesis of the secondary metabolites (KO01110), plant-pathogen interactions (KO04626), and plant hormone signal transduction (KO04075). Based on these results, EN02 contributes to increased resistance to abiotic stress. In particular, EN02 is involved in some of the metabolic stress response pathways in Arabidopsis. Our work also demonstrates that this EST dataset will be a powerful resource for further studies of EN02, such as functional analyses, investigations of biological roles, and molecular breeding. Additionally, 3-phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK), 3-phosphoglycerate kinase 1 (PGK1), triosephosphate isomerase (TPI), and pyruvate kinase (PK) in glycolysis interactions with ENO2 were verified using the yeast two-hybrid experiment, and EN02 may regulate the expression of PGK, PGK1, TPI, and PK. Taken together, the results from this study reflects that EN02 gene has an important role in the response to the high salt stress.展开更多

Candidate S. marmoratus microsatellite markers were developed in the present study using 454 pyrosequencing, and the marker profile was analyzed. A total of 2 000 000 raw sequence reads were assembled to reduce redundancy. Among them, 1 043 dinucleotide, 925 trinucleotide, 692 tetranucleotide, and 315 pentanucleotide repeats were detected. AC repeats were the most frequent motifs among the dinucleotide repeats, and AAT was the most abundant among the trinucleotide repeats. AAAT, ATAG, and ATCC were the three most common tetranucleotide motifs, and AAGAT and AATAT were the most dominant pentanucleotide motifs. The greatest numbers of loci and potentially amplifiable loci were found in dinucleotide repeats, whereas trinucleotide repeats had the fewest. In summary, a wide range of candidate microsatellite markers were identified in the present study using a rapid and efficient 454 pyrosequencing approach.展开更多
