RESEARCH Transcriptome assembly and expression analysis in Colletotrichum gloeosporioides-tolerant Rubus 7 glaucus Benth. Juliana Arias1, Juan C. Rincón1*, Ana M. López1, and Marta L. Marulanda1 1Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira, Grupo de Investigación en Biodiversidad y Biotecnología, Carrera 27 No. 10-02 Pereira, Risaralda, Colombia. *Corresponding author ([email protected]). Received: 9 April 2019; Accepted: 30 July 2019; doi:10.4067/S0718-58392019000400565 ABSTRACT Andean blackberry (Rubus glaucus Benth.) is an important crop of the Andean region affected by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides. In Colombia, tolerant plant material has been detected, but it has not been completely characterized. The objective of this research was oriented to analyze de novo transcriptome assembly of R. glaucus, and the comparison of the assembly with different reference genomes to further complete differential expression analysis of R. glaucus tolerant to C. gloespoiorides attack. To achieve this, three groups were used: infected tolerant material, infected susceptible material, and a susceptible group without inoculation. The RNA-seq sequencing was achieved through Illumina Hi-seq 2000. De novo assembly (Trinity, CD-HIT, TopHat) and functional annotation of sequences were carried out, additionally, mapping with reference genomes belonging to Rosaceae families was conducted (Bowtie2, TopHat). Subsequently, the differential expression was quantified (Cuffdiff) and analyzed through EdgeR. Variant analysis was made using MISA and SAMtools. After editing and assembly, 43579 consensus sequences were obtained (N50 = 489 bp; GC = 44.6%), annotation detected 35824 and 35602 sequences in Nt (partially non-redundant nucleotide sequences) and Nr (non-redundant protein sequences) databases, respectively. The 85% of Nr sequences was linked to members of Rosaceae family, mainly strawberry (67.6%). -

Abstract This study evaluated biological activities of blackberries (Rubus adenotrichos Schltdl.) and the effects of digestion or pasteurization processes on these activities. The blackberries phenolic extract showed an ORAC value of 4.34 ± 0.14 mmol TE/g, higher than those of quercetin and ellagic acid. It also protected liposomes and liver homogenates against lipid peroxidation; with IC50 of 7.0 ± 0.5 and 20.3 ± 4.2 μg/mL, respectively. The blackberry polyphenols inhibited nitrite production in J774A.1 cells stimulated with LPS+IFNγ due to down-regulation of iNOS protein expression, suggesting an anti- inflammatory potential. -

Rubus Discolor Himalayan Blackberry Rosaceae
Rubus discolor Himalayan blackberry Rosaceae Forest Starr, Kim Starr, and Lloyd Loope United States Geological Survey--Biological Resources Division Haleakala Field Station, Maui, Hawai'i March, 2003 OVERVIEW Rubus discolor (Himalayan blackberry), native to western Europe, has become a pest plant in moist temperate regions of the world where it has been introduced. In North America, this species is spreading along the west coast and several north eastern states where it invades disturbed habitat forming thorny dense impenetrable thickets through rapid growth. Spread is facilitated by fruit eating birds and mammals. In Hawai'i, Rubus discolor is known from the islands of O'ahu and Maui, where it is still somewhat limited in distribution. It is targeted for control on O'ahu by the O'ahu Invasive Species Committee (OISC). On Maui, Rubus discolor is sparingly known from both West and East Maui. On West Maui, Rubus discolor is located near the beginning of the trail that leads to Pu'u Kukui where is thought to have originally been planted. The plant now occupies several acres and may still be eradicable if resources were available. On East Maui, Rubus discolor is also known from a small area in the Ainahou flats, 6,300 ft (1,920 m) elevation (P. Bily pers. comm.). These locations are all near vulnerable native mesic and wet native forest areas. Control of Rubus species is somewhat difficult. However, control of this plant now would help prevent its further spread on Maui. TAXONOMY Family: Rosaceae (rose family) (Wagner et al. 1999). Latin name: Rubus discolor Weihe & Nees (Wagner et al. -

BACKGROUND: Blackberries (Rubus spp.) are fruits rich in secondary components (anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins, phenolic acids, carotenoids and others), recognized for their health benefits. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the content of different types of phenolic compounds and their antioxidant activity in sev- eral extracts of three varieties of blackberry fruit (Rubus adenotrichos) (red thorned, thornless and sweet), using different blackberry standards. METHODS: The varieties of blackberry fruit were analyzed in three stages of maturation (green, red and black). The evaluation of the phenolic compounds was carried out by applying commercial standards and own standards to the same samples, following the Folin-Ciocalteu, differential pH, DMAC, and ORAC procedures. RESULTS: The red thorned variety presented the best results with a concentration of polyphenols of 183.0 ± 0.5 mg GAE/g DS, antioxidant capacity of 3322 ± 10 mol TEAC/g DS, a value of 15.4 ± 0.3 mg of cyanidin-3-glucoside eq/g DS of anthocyanins, and a value of 9.26 ± 0.03 mg 4´-O-methylgallocatechin eq/g DS for of proanthocyanidin content. CONCLUSIONS: Our results show the limitation of a currently used standard, gallic acid and 4´-O-methylgallocatechin, for quantification of total polyphenols and proanthocyanidin respectively, and outline the development and validation of a more robust and accurate standard for blackberry fruit analysis. -

Marulanda E-mail: [email protected] Genet. Mol. Res. 11 (1): 322-331 (2012) Received July 11, 2011 Accepted September 15, 2011 Published February 10, 2012 DOI http://dx.doi.org/10.4238/2012.February.10.3 ABSTRACT. The species Rubus glaucus, also known as the Andean or “Castilla” blackberry, is one of nine edible species of this genus that grow naturally in Central and South America. In Colombia, this species is the most important of all Rubus species for agricultural and commercial purposes. We used 20 SSRs developed for other Rubus species to characterize 44 Colombian R. glaucus genotypes, collected from eight different departments, and to look for molecular differences between thornless and thorny cultivated blackberries. Eighty-two bands were obtained from 28 loci. The genotypes were classified into eight populations, corresponding to collection sites. The mean number of polymorphic alleles per locus in all populations and genotypes ranged from 1.857 to 2.393. Samples collected from Valle del Cauca, Quindío, Caldas, and Risaralda departments had the highest heterozygosity values. The finding of exclusive bands from R. glaucus genotypes from Valle del Cauca, Quindío, and Caldas demonstrates genetic and molecular differentiation between thorny and thornless Andean blackberries.

Floristic Survey of Flowering Plants in a Tropical Coastal Ecosystem in Veracruz, Mexico
Botanical Sciences 94 (1): 185-197, 2016 TAXONOMY AND FLORISTIC DOI: 10.17129/botsci.272 FLORISTIC SURVEY OF FLOWERING PLANTS IN A TROPICAL COASTAL ECOSYSTEM IN VERACRUZ, MEXICO CRISTIAN ADRIAN MARTÍNEZ-ADRIANO, ARMANDO AGUIRRE-JAIMES1 AND CECILIA DÍAZ-CASTELAZO Red de Interacciones Multitróficas, Instituto de Ecología A.C. Xalapa. Veracruz, México 1Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract: Mexico is a megadiverse country and Veracruz is one of the states with the highest foristic diversity. The reserve of La Mancha in central coastal Veracruz comprises several vegetation types. In this site we conducted for a year, monthly surveys of fowering or fruiting plants in six vegetation types, considering the frequency of occurrence of different species. We found a total of 147 species (131 genera and 63 families). The families most represented were Asteraceae, Fabaceae and Verbenaceae. In addi- tion, we found nine species that had not been reported in previous foristic studies. The highest taxonomic richness was observed in the tropical deciduous food forest with wetland (59 species), while the highest diversity was found in tropical deciduous forest (SDI = 0.9562). We also found that the most similar vegetation types based on the composition and frequency of species were, coastal dune scrub, tropical deciduous forest and pioneer dune vegetation. The dominant plant biological form in La Mancha were herbs (40.41 %) followed by shrubs (23.97 %), vines-lianas (18.49 %) and trees (17.12 %). This study is the frst to consider the frequency-occurrence of fowering and fruiting plants in La Mancha, covering six vegetation types through one year. The more relevant results of this study show the diversity of plants in different environments using the frequency of each species based on reproductive events.
