RNA Sequencing of Contaminated Seeds Reveals the State of the Seed Permissive for Pre-Harvest Aflatoxin Contamination and Points to a Potential Susceptibility Factor

Abstract: Pre-harvest aflatoxin contamination (PAC) is a major problem facing peanut production worldwide. Produced by the ubiquitous soil fungus, Aspergillus flavus, aflatoxin is the most naturally occurring known carcinogen. The interaction between fungus and host resulting in PAC is complex, and breeding for PAC resistance has been slow. It has been shown that aflatoxin production can be induced by applying drought stress as peanut seeds mature. We have implemented an automated rainout shelter that controls temperatu… Show more

“…Heat and drought stress in the field exacerbates aflatoxin contamination [ 18 ]. Peanut host genes altered by A. flavus contamination were discovered by a genome wide RNA-seq analysis [ 19 ]. Disruption of peanut abscisic acid signaling pathway by A. flavus invasion was suggested to facilitate aflatoxin accumulation.…”

“…The re-sequencing data set was created using 21 tetraploid A. hypogaea genotypes described in Clevenger et al (2017) [8] and deposited publically at ncbi.nlm.nih.gov (Bio Project PRJNA340877 and Bio Samples SAMN05721179 to SAMN05721198). The RNA-seq data set has information from nine tetraploid peanut genotypes described in Clevenger et al (2015, 2016a, 2016b) [18-20]. Validated true and false-positive SNP sets were based on testing the Arachis Affymetrix array with 384 peanut genotypes [8].…”

“…For instance, in case of groundnut, an integrated IVSC and RNA-seq approach that analyzed the four different stages of infected seed samples from J11 (resistant) and JL24 (susceptible) identified 4,445 differentially expressed unigenes (DEGs) that were involved in multiple pathways such as defense-related, PR or metabolic pathway targeting genes provided a more solid understanding of cross-talk between host-pathogen interactions (Nayak et al, 2017). Likewise, an RNA-seq-based approach was deployed in groundnut to identify genes that confer resistance during PAC (Clevenger et al, 2016). The study was able to associate the role of abscisic acid (ABA) signaling pathway during drought stress-induced aflatoxin contamination and/or PAC, and also revealed the role of genes from the fatty acid metabolism, cell wall restructuring and morphology, sugar metabolism and nitrogen metabolism pathways during A. flavus contamination in soil.…”
