Zea mays Transcriptome or Gene expression


ABSTRACT: Transcriptome of Zea mays genotypes under control and stress conditions. Stress conditions include heat, cold, salt, and UV. We extracted and sequenced RNA from 14 day old seedlings of inbred lines B73, Mo17 and Oh43 grown using standard conditions as well as seedlings that had been subjected to cold (5°C for 16 hours), heat (50°C for 4 hours), high salt (watered with 300 mM NaCl 20 hours prior to collection) or UV stress (2 hours). For each stress the plants were sampled immediately following the stress treatment and there were no apparent morphological changes in these plants relative to control plants.

Transposable elements (TEs) account for a large portion of the genome in many eukaryotic species. Despite their reputation as "junk" DNA or genomic parasites deleterious for the host, TEs have complex interactions with host genes and the potential to contribute to regulatory variation in gene expression. It has been hypothesized that TEs and genes they insert near may be transcriptionally activated in response to stress conditions. The maize genome, with many different types of TEs interspersed  ...[more]
