– Late blight resistance (24 arrays)• 24 arrays completed on transgenic RB lines
Transformation and Resistance Evaluation
Potato Transformation Transgenic RB lines in Russet Burbank, Superior, Dark Red NorlandConstructs from the Baker lab (VF36 with GSS-4 and GSS-5)Five constructs from the Jahn labRNAi constructs for RPR and SGT, Two RB-tagging lines
Late Blight Resistance Evaluation 635 clones, 2163 plants, in 29 inoculation experiments

Leaf ploidy array summary• ~10% of all genes showed significant
expression changes over ploidy levels• ~50% of ribosomal protein genes showed
significant expression changes over ploidy levels
• ~75% of histone genes showed significant expression changes over ploidy levels

Ribosomal protein genes Histone genes Cyclin Downregulated
Real-time PCR on selected genes
Conclusions• Ploidy affects plant growth rates and cell size• Gene families that change with ploidy
– Ribosomal protein genes, histones, cyclins• Important for “cellular infrastructure”
• “Ploidy genes” are context-dependent• Autopolyploid vs. Allopolyploid
– We find much more subtle expression changes in autopolyploids than in allopolyploids
RB-Associated Gene Expression
10 arrays were completed in 2005 to test the timing of transcriptome changes after late blight inoculation
24 arrays completed in the last three weeks for final profiling
The late blight resistance phenotypes of two transgenic Katahdin lines under an intensive inoculation conditions. Left Panel: Left: A transgenic Katahdin clone containing a single copy of the RB gene; Middle: S. bulbocastanum clone PT29; Right: Katahdin control. The transgenic Katahdin plant, which is resistant to late blight under regular inoculation condition, shows a susceptible phenotype. Right Panel: Left: A transgenic Katahdin clone containing multiple copies of the RB gene; Middle: S. bulbocastanum clone PT29; Right: Katahdin control. In Southern hybridization, DNA from the transgenic plants was cut with HindIII (left lane) and EcoR1 (right lane) and hybridized with a vector probe
“Super-resistant” transgenic RB clone
Schematic of RNA pooling and microarray hybridization: Four identical plants from each of the three Katahdin plants (control Katahdin, Katahdin containing one RB gene, Katahdin containing multiple copies of RB gene) are sampled under each of the three time points (2, 5, and 10 hours after inoculation). Eight RNA samples will be isolated from these four plants. Challenged and unchallenged RNA samples from two plants will be pooled, amplified and labeled. The challenged aRNA from the first pair of plants is labeled with Cy5 and the unchallenged aRNA labeled with Cy3. Alternately, the challenged aRNA in the second pair of plants is labeled with Cy3 and the unchallenged with Cy5. Both labeled samples are mixed from each pair of plants and hybridized to the array. This procedure creates a dye-swap with two biological replicates.
(A) Filtered data from Preliminary Array Experiment 1 is shown colored by the normalized intensity ratio (log transformed) along the vertical axis. The horizontal axis represents gene expression occurring 5, 15 and 25 hours post inoculation. (B) Filtered data from Preliminary Array Experiment 2 is shown colored by the normalized intensity ratio (log transformed) along the vertical axis. The horizontal axis represents gene expression occurring 2, 5 and 10 hours post inoculation
