Project description:Illumina HiSeq technology was used to generate mRNA profiles from Meliniomyces bicolor mycorrhizal roots compared to free-living mycelium . Mycorrhizal roots and control mycelium were harvested after 113 days and used for RNA extraction. Reads of 150bp were generated and aligned to Meliniomyces bicolor transcripts (https://genome.jgi.doe.gov/Melbi2/Melbi2.home.html) using CLC Genomics Workbench 8.
Project description:Parallel Analysis of RNA Ends (PARE) sequencing reads were generated to validate putative microRNAs and identify cleavage sites in Sorghum bicolor and Setaria viridis.
Project description:Transcript profiles of Laccaria bicolor S238N mycelium on various media were analyzed. The array probes were designed from gene models taken from the Joint Genome Institute (JGI, department of energy) Laccaria bicolor genome sequence version 1. One goal was to evaluate the effect of nutrient deprivation on the transcriptome of Laccaria bicolor.
Project description:This study used with RNA-Seq to examine the tissue specific expression data within sorghum plants for improving the Sorghum bicolor gene annotation. We examined the RNA from tissues (spikelet, seed and stem) in Sorghum bicolor (BTx623).Total RNAs form each tissues were extracted using SDS/phenol method followed by LiCl purification
Project description:Illumina GAIIx technology was used to generate mRNA profiles from the ectomycorrhizal fungi Laccaria bicolor colonizing roots of Populus trichocarpa. Samples were taken after two, four and 12 weeks of contact in order to identify mycorrhiza-regulated transcripts. 37bp reads were generated and aligned to the Populus trichocarpa (http://www.phytozome.net/poplar.php) and the Laccaria bicolor (http://genome.jgi-psf.org/Lacbi2/Lacbi2.home.html) reference genomes using CLC Genomics Workbench 6.
