ABSTRACT: Tissues were isolated from the globular seed using laser microdissection. At least two bioreplicates are included for each tissue. Tissues examined are : the embryo proper (EP), micropylar endosperm (MCE), peripheral endosperm (PEN), chalazal endosperm (CZE), chalazal proliferating tissue (CPT), chalazal seed coat (CZSC), inner seed coat (ISC), and outer seed coat (OSC).
Project description:We collected globular stage seed compartments from 5 or 7-micron paraffin sections using the Leica LMD6000 system in order to identify the mRNAs present in different compartments of an Arabidopsis seed containing a globular stage embryo. For the purposes of this study we broke down the seed into 7 capturable compartments: embyro proper, suspensor, micropylar endosperm, peripheral endosperm, chalazal endosperm, chalazal seed coat and general seed coat. Experiment Overall Design: Globular stage seed compartments were isolated using the LMD6000 system. Total RNA was amplified and hybridized with Affymetrix ATH1 Arabidopsis array for 15 samples (Embryo Proper, Micropylar Endosperm, Peripheral Endosperm, General Seed Coat and Chalazal Seed Coat, 2 biological replicates each and Chalazal Endosperm with 3 biological replicates).
Project description:We collected globular stage seed compartments from 5 or 7-micron paraffin sections using the Leica LMD6000 system in order to identify the mRNAs present in different compartments of an Arabidopsis seed containing a globular stage embryo. For the purposes of this study we broke down the seed into 8 capturable compartments: embyro proper, suspensor, micropylar endosperm, peripheral endosperm, chalazal endosperm, chalazal seed coat, general seed coat, and whole seeds. Keywords: cell type comparison
Project description:We collected pre-globular stage seed compartments from 7-micron paraffin sections using the Leica LMD6000 system in order to identify the mRNAs present in different compartments of seeds containing pre-globular-stage embryos was identified as those seeds containing embryo propers made up of between 2 and 8 cells. For the purposes of this study we captured 6 compartments: embyro proper, micropylar endosperm, peripheral endosperm, chalazal endosperm, chalazal seed coat and general seed coat. Serial sections of entire seeds were also captured for comparison. Experiment Overall Design: Pre-globular stage seed compartments or whole seeds were isolated using the LMD6000 system. Total RNA was amplified and hybridized with Affymetrix ATH1 Arabidopsis array for 14 samples (embryo proper, micropylar endosperm, peripheral endosperm, chalazal endosperm, general seed coat, chalazal seed coat, whole seeds, 2 biological replicates each).
Project description:mRNA expression profiling of the embryo, endosperm (micropylar, peripheral, chalazal), and seed coat (outer, inner, chalazal, chalazal proliferating tissue) of the developing Brassica napus seed. Tissues were isolated using laser microdissection (LMD) from Brassica napus seeds at the globular, heart, and mature green stages of seed development.

Project description:We collected mature green seed compartments from 7 micron paraffin sections using the Leica LMD6000 system in order to identify the mRNAs present in different compartments from seeds containing mature green-stage embryos. For the purposes of this study we captured 6 compartments: embryo proper, micropylar endosperm, cellularized peripherial endosperm, chalazal endosperm, chalazal seed coat and seed coat, as well sets of serial sections encompassing the entire mature green stage seed. Experiment Overall Design: Mature green stage seed compartments were isolated using the LMD6000 system. Total RNA was amplified and hybridized with Affymetrix ATH1 Arabidopsis array for 14 samples (embryo proper, micropylar endosperm, peripherial endosperm, chalazal endosperm, chalazal seed coat, seed coat and whole seeds, 2 biological replicates each).
Project description:We collected heart stage seed compartments from 7 micron paraffin sections using the Leica LMD6000 system in order to identify the mRNAs present in different compartments from seeds containing heart stage embryos. For the purposes of this study we captured 6 compartments: embryo proper, micropylar endosperm, peripheral endosperm, chalazal endosperm, chalazal seed coat and seed coat, as well sets of serial sections encompassing the entire heart stage seed. Experiment Overall Design: Heart stage seed compartments were isolated using the LMD6000 system. Total RNA was amplified and hybridized with Affymetrix ATH1 Arabidopsis array for 16 samples (embryo proper, micropylar endosperm, peripheral endosperm, seed coat and whole seeds, 2 biological replicates each; chalazal endosperm, chalazal seed coat, 3 biological replicates each).
