Résumé : Background: In rice, the cortex and outer tissues play a key role in submergence tolerance. The cortex differentiates into aerenchyma, which are air-containing cavities that allow the flow of oxygen from shoots to roots, whereas exodermis suberification and sclerenchyma lignification limit oxygen loss from the mature parts of roots by forming a barrier to root oxygen loss (ROL). The genes and their networks involved in the cellular identity and differentiation of these tissues remain poorly understood. Identification and characterization of key regulators of aerenchyma and ROL barrier formation require determination of the specific expression profiles of these tissues. Results: We optimized an approach combining laser microdissection (LM) and droplet digital RT-PCR (ddRT-PCR) for high-throughput identification of tissue-specific expression profiles. The developed protocol enables rapid (within 3 days) extraction of high-quality RNA from root tissues with a low contamination rate. We also demonstrated the possibility of extracting RNAs from paraffin blocks stored at 4 °C without any loss of quality. We included a detailed troubleshooting guide that should allow future users to adapt the proposed protocol to other tissues and/or species. We demonstrated that our protocol, which combines LM with ddRT-PCR, can be used as a complementary tool to in situ hybridization for tissue-specific characterization of gene expression even with a low RNA concentration input. We illustrated the efficiency of the proposed approach by validating three of four potential tissue-specific candidate genes detailed in the RiceXpro database. Conclusion: The detailed protocol and the critical steps required to optimize its use for other species will democratize tissue-specific transcriptome approaches combining LM with ddRT-PCR for analyses of plants.
