Valine-glutamine (VQ) proteins are plant-specific proteins that play crucial roles in plant development as well as biotic and abiotic stress responses. VQ genes have been identified in various plants; however, there are no systematic reports in Cicer arietinum or Medicago truncatula. Herein, we identified 19 and 32 VQ genes in C. arietinum and M. truncatula, respectively. A total of these VQ genes were divided into eight groups (I–VIII) based on phylogenetic analysis. Gene structure analyses and motif patterns revealed that these VQ genes might have originated from a common ancestor. In silico analyses demonstrated that these VQ genes were expressed in different tissues. qRT-PCR analysis indicated that the VQ genes were differentially regulated during multiple abiotic stresses. This report presents the first systematic analysis of VQ genes from C. arietinum and M. truncatula and provides a solid foundation for further research of the specific functions of VQ proteins.

Abstract Background: Autophagy is a highly conserved degradation process of cytoplasmic constituents in eukaryotes. Autophagy is known to be involved in the regulation of plant growth and development, as well as biotic and abiotic stress response. Although autophagy-related genes (ATGs) have been identified and characterized in many plant species, little is known about the autophagy process in Medicago truncatula. Results: In this study, 39 ATGs were identified in M. truncatula (MtATGs), and the gene structures and conserved domains of MtATGs were systematically characterized. In addition, many cis-elements which are related to hormone and stress responsiveness were identified in the promoters of MtATGs. Furthermore, phylogenetic analysis and interaction network analysis suggested that the function of MtATGs is evolutionarily conserved in Arabidopsis and M. truncatula. Gene expression analysis showed that most MtATGs were largely induced during seed development, but repressed by nodulation. Moreover, MtATGs were up-regulated in response to salt and drought stresses.Conclusion: These results provide a comprehensive overview of the MtATGs, which provided important clues for further functional analysis of autophagy in M. truncatula.

Abstract Plant microRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs that are 20–24 nucleotides length and can repress gene expression at post-transcriptional levels by target degradation or translational repression. There is increasing evidence that some microRNAs can be derived from a group of non-autonomous class II transposable elements called Miniature Inverted-repeat Transposable Elements (MITEs) in plants. We used public small RNA, degradome libraries and the common wheat (Triticum aestivum) genome to screen miRNAs production and target sites. We also created a comprehensive wheat MITE database using known and identifying novel elements. We found high homology between MITEs and 14% of all the miRNAs production sites in wheat. Furthermore, we show that MITE-derived miRNAs have preference for target degradation sites with MITE insertions in 3' UTR regions in wheat.
