DNA methylation and histone posttranslational modifications have been shown to play a key role in both epigenetic control and plant functional status under stress by controlling the functional state of chromatin and gene expression. Cork oak (Quercus suber L.) is a key stone of the Mediterranean region, growing at temperatures of 45°C. This species was subjected to a cumulative temperature increase from 25°C to 55°C under laboratory conditions in order to test the hypothesis that epigenetic code is related to heat stress tolerance. Electrolyte leakage increased after 35°C, but all plants survived to 55°C. DNA methylation and acetylated histone H3 (AcH3) levels were monitored by HPCE (high performance capillary electrophoresis), MS-RAPD (methylation-sensitive random-amplified polymorphic DNA) and Protein Gel Blot analysis and the spatial distribution of the modifications was assessed using a confocal microscope. DNA methylation analysed by HPCE revealed an increase at 55°C, while MS-RAPD results pointed to dynamic methylation-demethylation patterns over stress. Protein Gel Blot showed the abundance index of AcH3 decreasing from 25°C to 45°C. The immunohistochemical detection of 5-mC (5-methyl-2′-deoxycytidine) and AcH3 came upon the previous results. These results indicate that epigenetic mechanisms such as DNA methylation and histone H3 acetylation have opposite and particular dynamics that can be crucial for the stepwise establishment of this species into such high stress (55°C), allowing its acclimation and survival. This is the first report that assesses epigenetic regulation in order to investigate heat tolerance in forest trees.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">The following values have no corresponding Zotero field:&lt;br/&gt;publisher: Public Library of Science&lt;br/&gt;accession-num: 23326451</style></notes></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pérez, Marta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Bueno, MaríaAngeles</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Escalona, Maritza</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Toorop, Peter</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rodriguez, Roberto</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cañal, MaríaJesús</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Temporary immersion systems (RITA®) for the improvement of cork oak somatic embryogenic culture proliferation and somatic embryo production</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Trees</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Culture parameters</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Embryogenic callus</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Immersion frequency</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Liquid medium</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Quercus suber</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Repetitive somatic embryogenesis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Semi-solid medium</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2013</style></year></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Springer Berlin Heidelberg</style></publisher><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">27</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1277-1284</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Somatic embryogenesis in cork oak (Quercus suber L.) is an efficient tool that allows the production of large number of embryos from selected quality and productive trees. Temporary immersion systems (TIS) are an alternative to semi-solid or liquid culture that combine the advantages of liquid culture and avoid the associated problems. Parameters that affect the TIS multiplication efficiency of Q. suber L. embryogenic cultures were evaluated. Immersion frequencies of 1 min every 6 or 4 h increased the fresh weight 3.7 or 7.5-fold compared with an immersion frequency of 1 min every 12 h or cultures on semi-solid medium, respectively. The cellular fate of embryogenic cultures was also affected by the immersion frequency, 1 min every 6 h was the best for mass propagation of proliferative developmental stages (embryogenic calli and embryo clusters) while 1 min every 4 h promoted the formation of single, fully developed cotyledonary embryos. An initial amount of 1.5 g fresh weight of proliferative tissues produced the best results in RITA(A (R)) containers while 0.5 g of embryogenic callus was the best for semi-solid cultures.</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
