Nicotiana attenuata Genome Reveals Genes in the Molecular Machinery Behind Remarkable Adaptive Phenotypic Plasticity

Part of the book series: Compendium of Plant Genomes ((CPG))

Abstract

Nicotiana attenuata (coyote tobacco) has been developed into a model plant system to understand the molecular basis of traits important for the Darwinian fitness of plants in nature. Twenty years of releases of transgenic N. attenuata plants into a nature preserve in the plant’s native habitat have greatly advanced our understanding of the traits related to herbivore resistance. We provide an account of the genome sequencing of this wild tobacco species, as well as of another sympatric diploid tobacco, N. obtusifolia, which has different responses to herbivore attack. N. attenuata is a post-fire annual with a long-lived seed bank and exhibits an impressive array of plastic responses to the environmental challenges it faces, including unpredictable herbivore and pathogen attacks, by reprogramming the expression of thousands of genes. Regulatory small RNAs, including microRNAs, along with their biogenesis and regulating machinery, are thought to tailor the much needed specificity in modulating these large-scale changes in gene expression. Here, we provide a detailed genome-informed account of the small RNA machinery and its evolution in N. attenuata.
