Project description:This experiment was set up in order to identify the (direct) transcriptional targets of the Ethylene Response Factor 115 (ERF115) transcription factor. Because ERF115 expression occurs in quiescent center (QC) cells and strong effects on the QC cells were observed in ERF115 overexpression plants, root tips were harvested for transcript profiling in order to focus on root meristem and QC specific transcriptional targets.

Because ERF115 expression occurs in quiescent center (QC) cells and strong effects on the QC cells were observed in ERF115 overexpression plants, root tips were harvested for transcript profiling in order to focus on root meristem and QC specific transcriptional targets. Wild-type (Col-0 ecotype), erf115 mutant (SALK_021981) and ERF115 overexpressing (p35S:ERF115 ORF) root tips (three replicates each) were harvested and subjected to transcript profiling, using the Col-0 samples as control reference.
Project description:The transcriptional profiles of root quiescent center tissues from AtHB17 KO lines in Arabidopsis were compared to wild-type sibling lines. The transcriptional profiles of root quiescent center tissues from AtHB17 KO lines in Arabidopsis were compared to wild-type sibling lines.
Project description:The Arabidopsis quiescent center (QC) is a small group of cells with low mitotic activity located at the center of the root stem cell niche. Its transcriptional profile was previously analyzed using two repeats of cells FACS isolated using the WOX5 marker. To get more power in analyzing QC transcriptional profile, we generated three additional samples of the QC, using the QC-specific marker WOX5.

Project description:Early establishment of the apical-basal axis is prerequesite for correct embryonic development in Arabidopsis. The hypophysis is derived from the basal cell of the early embryo and is indispensible for root development; it gives rise to the root quiescent center and the central columella. Arabidopsis pvip1 pvip2 mutants show defects in embryonic root development and give rise to rootless seedlings. We used microarrays to study the gene regulation of rootless mutant embryos in comparison with wild type. Keywords: Mutant comparison
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of root part comparing wild type with scl3 mutant and SCL3 OE. We used Affymetrix ATH1 microarrays to determine the effect of GRAS transcription factor SCL3 on growth and development of Arabidopsis root system by global transcriptome analysis and to identify new regulators in the regulatory pathway.

We used microarrays to study the gene regulation of rootless mutant embryos in comparison with wild type. Experiment Overall Design: Arabidopsis pvip1 pvip2 mutant and Col-0 wild type seedlings (10 days after germination) were compared using Affymetrix ATH1 arrays. Roots of wild type seedlings were removed and the vestigial hypocotyl of mutants was cut to control for wounding effects.
