Project description:This experiment probed for the presence of known Arabidopsis and rice microRNAs in total RNA samples derived from species representative of the major groups of land plants: Eudicots (Arabidopsis thaliana, Nicotiana benthamiana), monocots (Oryza satica, Triticum aestivum), magnoliids (Liriodendron tulipifera), gymnosperms (Pinus resinosa), ferns (Ceratopteris thalictroides), lycopods (Selaginella uncinata), and mosses (Polytrichum juniperinum). In most cases two technical or biological replicates were performed.
Project description:Bryophytes comprise mosses, liverworts and hornworts. The chromatin landscapes of mosses and liverworts are different, leaving open the question regarding the identity of the chromatin landscape of all bryophytes. To address this question we profiled five chromatin marks using a model hornworts, Anthoceros agrestis.
