Project description:Purpose: the goals of this study are to compare fruit of two clitivars oriental melon transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) at different stages to explore carotenoid potentail carotenoid accumulation mechanism Methods:The transcriptome sequence of two cultivars oriental melon fruits at different stages were generated by deep sequencing with three repeats using Illumina. The sequence reads that passed filters were mapped to melon genome (http://cucurbitgenomics.org/organism/18) using HISAT2 software. The differently expressed genes were identify by |log2(FoldChange)| > 0 & padj <= 0.05, and qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays Result:Using an optimized data analysis workflow, we mapped about 40 million sequence reads per sample to the melon genome. The differentially expressed genes were functionally classified by GO and KEGG enrichment. We focused on carotenoid metabolism related gene and validated using qRT-PCR. The results showed RNA-seq and qRT-PCR were highly correlated. Conclusion: Our study provided transcriptome sequence of oriental melon fruits at different stages in two cultivars. The optimized data analysis workflows reported here should provide comparative framework of expression profiles. Our transcriptome characterization contribute to analyze gene functions and metabolic process of oriental melon.
Project description:We have sequenced a wild Prunus mume and constructed a reference sequence for this genome. In order to improve quality of gene models, RNA samples of five tissues (bud, leaf, root, stem, fruit) were extracted from the Prunus mume. To investigate tissue specific expression using the reference genome assembly and annotated genes, we extracted RNA samples of different tissues and conducted transcriptome sequencing and DEG analysis.

Five RNA pools were created corresponding to different tissues of the Prunus mume.
Project description:DNA was isolated from tissues (blood, sperm, or liver). DNA from different tissues from the same organism were labeled with alternate fluorophores (Cy3 or Cy5) and hybridized to a custom array that was designed from lamprey (Petromyzon marinus) genomic sequence.
Project description:We have sequenced the whole genome of Cleome hassleriana by NGS [SRA accession number SRA058749] and build a reference sequence for this genome. In order to improve quality of gene models, a mix transcriptome sample extracted from the bud, leaf, petiole, stems and flowers of Cleome. A mixed RNA pool extracted from the tissues of bud, leaf, petiole, stems and flower is sequenced for Cleome hassleriana.
