Whole genome transcriptional analysis in rice-stem during dough stage induced by arsenic contaminated soil and irrigation water
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: RNA from stem containing first node and internodes during dough stage was considered for the above purpose. Satabdi, (popularly known as Minikit) most popular cultivar of West Bengal and Palman, another high yielding variety were considered for microarray analysis for comparison to each other. Two rice genotypes were grown in identical conditions (same field with contaminated ground water) to obtain the most meaningful conclusion. Dough stage was considered as variation in arsenic accumulation among the genotypes starts during dough stage to maturity. Plant tissues were collected from stem for transcriptomic analysis as expression profiling of such tissue in response to arsenic would be most useful as arsenic transport/loading in grain was assumed to be controlled by arsenic translocation behavior at inter vascular level or from xylem to phloem. Satabdi accumulates more than twice of arsenic in brown rice (0.346 mg/kg) than that of Palman (0.156 mg/kg) whereas accumulation in straw (2.07 mg/kg) was approximately less than half of the Palman (4.491 mg/kg)
