Project description:We performed four small RNA sequencing for identification and characterization of microRNAs in Phalaenopsis aphrodite subsp. formosana. By comparing the low temperature-treated group with treated group, we concluded four miRNAs - miR156, miR162, miR528 and miR535 - as low temperature-induced miRNAs. In addition, tissue-specific expression of these miRNAs was investigated. The files contain the miRNAs analysis results in each group.

Project description:In the family Fagaceae, fertilization is delayed by several weeks to more than one year after pollination, leading to one- or two-year fruiting species depending on whether fruiting occurs in the same or the next year of flowering. Although delayed fertilization was recorded over a century ago, underlying mechanisms remain to be explored. To uncover the key genes associated with delayed fertilization, we obtain and analyze the comparative molecular phenology data over two years in one-year (Quercus glauca) and two-year fruiting species (Lithocarpus edulis).
Project description:Experiment evaluating aplicability of PlasTi-microarray for cross-species hybridization studies. PlasTi-microarray is a tiling oligonucleotide microarray originally designed for cucumber plastome analysis.Chloroplast RNA from Arabidopsis, tomato and spinach leaves was extracted, labelled and hybridized to PlasTi-microarray with the cucumber samples labelled with the second dye as a control. For each species, one biological sample and one technical replicate (labelled in a dye-swap orientation) were analyzed, resulting in two microarray hybridizations per species and six microarrays (a-f) in total.
