Project description:The tomato SlWRKY3 transcription factor was overexpressed in cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum)and transgenic plants transcriptome was compared to that of wild-type plants. At least 4 plants were collected for RNA extraction. The aim of the experiment was to compare transcriptomes of 35::SlWRKY3 plants and wild-type plants grown together and on MS (Murashige and Skoog) medium in vitro for 4 weeks. A technical replicate (dye swap) was conducted.
Project description:RNA sequencing in tomato for detect mRNA expression of Solanum lycopersicum Axillary bud.The two cultivars (monomaker, raceme) at Axillary bud for transcriptome sequencing
Project description:RNA sequencing in tomato for detect mRNA expression of Solanum lycopersicum flower.The two cultivars (monomaker, raceme) had three different flowering stages (budlet, Flower bud, Full bloom) for transcriptome sequencing
Project description:RNA interference (RNAi) is a widely-used approach to generate virus-resistant transgenic crops. However, durability of RNAi-mediated resistance under extreme field conditions and side-effects of stable RNAi expression have not been thoroughly investigated. Here we performed field trials and molecular characterization of two RNAi-transgenic Solanum lycopersicum lines resistant to Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) disease, the major constraint for tomato cultivation in Cuba and worldwide. In order to determine potential impact of the hairpin RNA transgene expression on tomato genome expression and development, differences in the phenotypes and the transcriptome profiles between the transgenic and non-transgenic plants were examined. Transcriptome profiling revealed a common set of up- and down-regulated tomato genes, which correlated with slight developmental abnormalities in both transgenic lines.
