Project description:Transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq) was used to sequence the leaves of Xanthoceras sorbifolia Bunge under low nitrogen, so as to analyze the resistance of Xanthoceras sorbifolia Bunge to low nitrogen.
Project description:Atractylodes macrocephala is a traditional Chinese medicine in China. It is widely used in clinic and the market demand is great. The quality difference between A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz and A. japonica Koidz.ex Kitam is great, which seriously affects its clinical curative effect. Determination of Atractylosin by High-performance liquid chromatography. Transcriptomics coupled with Metabonomics for elucidating differences between the components in A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz and A. japonica Koidz.ex Kitam. It was found that ACS, ACC, PAL and NOS were the key genes and metabolites related to the synthesis of atractylodes macrocephala. The decrease of salicylic acid content in A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz may lead to the decrease of its ability to mediate the elicitor of endophytic fungi, resulting in the down-regulation of the expression of TGAL4 transcription factor and the up-regulation of DOGL3 transcription factor in A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz cells, which may affect the accumulation of Atractylosin. The study above provides a theoretical basis for elucidating the biosynthesis pathway of atractylosin in A. chinensis(Bunge) Koidz.
Project description:Pistacia chinensis Bunge is known as dioecious, but we have found wild monoecious individuals. In order to screen the candidate genes which may influence the sex expression or floral phenotypic differences of P. chinensis, the inflorescence buds for different sex types associated with the sex differentiation were selected and tested for small RNA sequencing. Sex-specific differentially expressed small RNA were discovered, combined with real-time PCR data, the regulation patterns of various sex types were first revealed. Our study represents the first detailed analysis of small RNA sequencing, providing more clues for understanding the mechanism of sex determination on P. chinensis.
Project description:We first report the use of next-generation massively parallel sequencing technologies and de novo transcriptome assembly to gain insight into the wide range of transcriptome of Hevea brasiliensis. The output of sequenced data showed that more than 12 million sequence reads with average length of 90nt were generated. Totally 48,768 unigenes (mean size = 488 bp) were assembled through transcriptome de novo assembly, which represent more than 3-fold of all the sequences of Hevea brasiliensis deposited in the GenBank. Assembled sequences were annotated with gene descriptions, gene ontology and clusters of orthologous group terms. Total 37,373 unigenes were successfully annotated and more than 10% of unigenes were aligned to known proteins of Euphorbiaceae. The unigenes contain nearly complete collection of known rubber-synthesis-related genes. Our data provides the most comprehensive sequence resource available for study rubber tree and demonstrates the availability of Illumina sequencing and de novo transcriptome assembly in a species lacking genome information. The transcriptome of latex and leaf in Hevea brasiliensis
Project description:We compiled the transcriptome by extracting mRNA, reverse transcription and Illumina sequencing, followed by assembly and annotation by comparison with public databases (including; Nr, SwissProt and COG). Quantitative data on the transcription abundance of each putative protein sequence is provided as assesed by the SOAPdenovo_trans assembly tool.
Project description:To investigate the possible molecular mechanisms of boron deficiency tolerance in roots, we explored the internal changes of the gene expession of Pyrus betulaefolia Bunge roots after 24 hours boron deficiency
