Gene Expression Changes in the Development of the Soybean Seed
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: This experiment combines four RNA-Seq datasets of soybean seeds at the following developmental stages: 1) seed globular stage, E-GEOD-57349 (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-57349/); 2) seed heart stage, E-GEOD-57350 (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-57350/); 3) seed cotyledon stage, E-GEOD-57606 (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-57606/) and 4) seed early maturation stage, E-GEOD-46096 (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-GEOD-46096/). Authors investigated soybean seed development because (1) soybean seeds are a major source of food and fuel, (2) soybean seeds have been an excellent system for studying the basic processes controlling seed development for over three decades, and (3) new soybean genomic resources, including the sequence of the soybean genome and the gene expression profiles for all seed compartments, tissues, and cell types, can be used to gain new insights into the regulatory processes required for seed differentiation. Authors sequenced messenger RNA populations of specific soybean seed compartments to provide new insights into gene expression that are important for âmaking a soybean seed.â
