Selaginella moellenforfii, Arabidopsis thaliana, Equisetum arvense, Zea mays shoot meristems transcriptome

ABSTRACT: We used LM-RNAseq to compare the molecular fingerprints of cells enriched for subdomains within Selaginella, Equisetum, Arabidopsis and maize shoot apices. Three apical domains were isolated from the Selaginella and Equisetum SAMs: the AC domain, comprising the lone AC; the core domain, comprising the cells below the AC and above the initiating leaf primordium; and the initiating leaf primordium. LM-RNAseq analyses of these shoot apical subdomains generated hundreds of significantly DEGs for each cell type relative to whole-plant transcriptomes based on an FDR ≤ 0.05. These data were analyzed for the presence of homologous developmental genetic programs across these three species, and for the identification of unique developmental programs operating within each species.
