Book Mass Spectrometry Imaging

Download or read book Mass Spectrometry Imaging written by and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In our short review provides perspective regarding the use of mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) to study the rhizosphere. It also serves to complement the multi-omic-focused review by White et al. in this journals' issue. MSI is capable of elucidating chemical distributions within samples of interest in situ, and thus can provide spatial context to MS omics data in complementary experimental endeavors. Most MSI-based studies of plant-microbe interactions have focused on the phyllosphere and on the "associated rhizosphere" (our term for material that is not removed during harvesting). Sample preparation for these in situ analyses tends to be a limiting factor. Our studies, however, have provided valuable insights into the spatial arrangement of proteins, peptides, lipids, and other metabolites within these systems. We intend this short review to be a primer on the fundamentals of MSI and its role in plant-microbe analysis. Finally, we offer a perspective on the future of MSI and its use in understanding the molecular transformations beyond what we call the associated rhizosphere, one which extends to the rest of rhizosphere and into the bulk soil.

Book Omics and its Integration  A Systems Biology Approach to Understanding Plant Physiology

Download or read book Omics and its Integration A Systems Biology Approach to Understanding Plant Physiology written by Kashif Ali and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-11-27 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Due to the complexity and interconnectivity of many biological processes, an integrative systems biology approach is required to better understand them. The integration of various omics data (including genomics, proteomics, transcriptomics, and metabolomics data) will provide a holistic view that highlights the relationship among the various biomolecules and their functions in plant growth, resistance, quality, and many other important traits. Recent advances in analytical power and in the ability to process large data sets has enabled researchers to integrate multi-omics data and have a much deeper knowledge of the cell, tissue, organ, or even an entire organism being studied. The goal of this Research Topic is not only to publish high-quality and reliable omics data but also to answer the bigger question of how to integrate and correlate different data sets from multiple omics studies. Can one omics data set be used as a primary data set for the design and execution of another omics study? If so, then how it can be done? What are its pre-requisites? How can we plan research involving multi-omics approach to reach a meaningful conclusion? These are the questions that need our attention and their answers are critical for the future of omics-based research. For this Research Topic, we welcome contributors to submit manuscripts related to the following themes: • Studies on plant-based genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics; • Development of new analytical methods for omics utilizing in plants; • Advancements in the current analytical methods for utilizing omics in plants; • Integration of multi-omics data sets; • Development of new statistical methods for data analysis.

Book Root Galling Disease of Vegetable Plants

Download or read book Root Galling Disease of Vegetable Plants written by Faheem Ahmad and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-11-22 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the most comprehensive and up-to-date review of research on vegetable plants associated with root-galls disease caused by root-knot nematodes (RKNs), Meloidogyne spp. Vegetables retain a key position in cultural cuisines and their consumption worldwide due to rich sources of micronutrients, including vitamins, minerals and antioxidants, but root galls disease of these crops caused by RKNs steals both quantity and quality from production. The field of plant nematology has experienced exponential growth over the past decade, and these RKNs are now known as widely damaging obligate plant parasites of vegetable plants. Advances are being made in understanding their biology, parasitism in the root system, giant cell development, root gall formation, chemical signalling, root-knot disease complexes, and management systems. This compilation provides an invaluable resource for studying root-galls disease of vegetable plants to those readers associated with plant nematology, plant pathology, plant protection, and agricultural science, including researchers, teachers, advanced undergraduates and graduate students, and even agricultural extension agents and farmers.

Book Development of High spatial and High mass Resolution Mass Spectrometric Imaging  MSI  and Its Application to the Study of Small Metabolites and Endogenous Molecules of Plants

Download or read book Development of High spatial and High mass Resolution Mass Spectrometric Imaging MSI and Its Application to the Study of Small Metabolites and Endogenous Molecules of Plants written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High-spatial and high-mass resolution laser desorption ionization (LDI) mass spectrometric (MS) imaging technology was developed for the attainment of MS images of higher quality containing more information on the relevant cellular and molecular biology in unprecedented depth. The distribution of plant metabolites is asymmetric throughout the cells and tissues, and therefore the increase in the spatial resolution was pursued to reveal the localization of plant metabolites at the cellular level by MS imaging. For achieving high-spatial resolution, the laser beam size was reduced by utilizing an optical fiber with small core diameter (25 [mu]m) in a vacuum matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-linear ion trap (vMALDI-LTQ) mass spectrometer. Matrix application was greatly improved using oscillating capillary nebulizer. As a result, single cell level spatial resolution of ~ 12 [mu]m was achieved. MS imaging at this high spatial resolution was directly applied to a whole Arabidopsis flower and the substructures of an anther and single pollen grains at the stigma and anther were successfully visualized. MS imaging of high spatial resolution was also demonstrated to the secondary roots of Arabidopsis thaliana and a high degree of localization of detected metabolites was successfully unveiled. This was the first MS imaging on the root for molecular species. MS imaging with high mass resolution was also achieved by utilizing the LTQ-Orbitrap mass spectrometer for the direct identification of the surface metabolites on the Arabidopsis stem and root and differentiation of isobaric ions having the same nominal mass with no need of tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). MS imaging at high-spatial and high-mass resolution was also applied to cer1 mutant of the model system Arabidopsis thaliana to demonstrate its usefulness in biological studies and reveal associated metabolite changes in terms of spatial distribution and/or abundances compared to those of wild-type. The spatial distribution of targeted metabolites, mainly waxes and flavonoids, was systematically explored on various organs, including flowers, leaves, stems, and roots at high spatial resolution of ~ 12-50 [mu]m and the changes in the abundance level of these metabolites were monitored on the cer1 mutant with respect to the wild-type. This study revealed the metabolic biology of CER1 gene on each individual organ level with very detailed high spatial resolution. The separate MS images of isobaric metabolites, i.e. C29 alkane vs. C28 aldehyde could be constructed on both genotypes from MS imaging at high mass resolution. This allows tracking of abundance changes for those compounds along with the genetic mutation, which is not achievable with low mass resolution mass spectrometry. This study supported previous hypothesis of molecular function of CER1 gene as aldehyde decarbonylase, especially by displaying hyper accumulation of aldehydes and C30 fatty acid and decrease in abundance of alkanes and ketones in several plant organs of cer1 mutant. The scope of analytes was further directed toward internal cell metabolites from the surface metabolites of the plant. MS profiling and imaging of internal cell metabolites were performed on the vibratome section of Arabidopsis leaf. Vibratome sectioning of the leaf was first conducted to remove the surface cuticle layer and it was followed by enzymatic treatment of the section to induce the digestion of primary cell walls, middle lamella, and expose the internal cells underneath to the surface for detection with the laser by LDI-MS. The subsequent MS imaging onto the enzymatically treated vibratome section allowed us to map the distribution of the metabolites in the internal cell layers, linolenic acid (C18:3 FA) and linoleic acid (C18:2 FA). The development of an assay for relative quantification of analytes at the single subcellular/organelle level by LDI-MS imaging was attempted and both plausibility and significant obstacles were seen. As ...

Book Evolution of Translational Omics

Download or read book Evolution of Translational Omics written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-09-13 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technologies collectively called omics enable simultaneous measurement of an enormous number of biomolecules; for example, genomics investigates thousands of DNA sequences, and proteomics examines large numbers of proteins. Scientists are using these technologies to develop innovative tests to detect disease and to predict a patient's likelihood of responding to specific drugs. Following a recent case involving premature use of omics-based tests in cancer clinical trials at Duke University, the NCI requested that the IOM establish a committee to recommend ways to strengthen omics-based test development and evaluation. This report identifies best practices to enhance development, evaluation, and translation of omics-based tests while simultaneously reinforcing steps to ensure that these tests are appropriately assessed for scientific validity before they are used to guide patient treatment in clinical trials.
