Transcriptomic response of durum wheat to nitrogen starvation

Abstract: Nitrogen (N) is a key macronutrient representing a limiting factor for plant growth and development and affects productivity in wheat. In this study, durum wheat response to N chronic starvation during grain filling was investigated through a transcriptomic approach in roots, leaves/stems, flag leaf and spikes of cv. Svevo. Nitrogen stress negatively influenced plant height, tillering, flag leaf area, spike and seed traits, and total N content. RNA-seq data revealed 4,626 differentially expressed genes (DEGs).… Show more

“…In durum wheat, the gene coding for nitrate reductase was up-regulated, while the genes orthologous to Arabidopsis glutamine synthetase and glutamate dehydrogenase family were down-regulated in response to N-starvation (Table S2). A similar result was reported by Curci et al . (2017) for the response of durum wheat leaves to N chronic starvation during grain filling.…”

“…In addition, the results of gene enrichment analysis indicate that emmer and durum wheat adapt to nitrogen starvation by a reprogramming of transcription. Transcription factors are important for controlling the expression of other genes in plant exposed to limited N condition or in complete starvation (Krapp et al ., 2011; Yang et al ., 2015; Curci et al ., 2017) and, accordingly, our results showed as the regulation of transcripts was highly different and, in some case, with an opposite trend between emmer and durum wheat. In addition, some GO categories were only enriched for the DEGs in durum wheat, such as: the cellular amino acids, oxoacid or organic acids metabolism which were also highlighted by Huang et al (2016) in their study on the transcriptomic evaluation in response to the imbalance of carbon: nitrogen ratio in rice seedling.…”

“…In the 13 C-experiment, 3.81 mol of 13 CO 2 were consumed which corresponds to a consumption rate of 11.5 mmol 13 CO 2 /g FW (Additional file 1: equation (S1, S4)). The consumed amounts of 15 N or 13 CO 2 are in good agreement with the literature (29)(30)(31).…”
