Project description:NILs containing five parental lines, three wild barley genotypes ssp. spontaneum: HID 4 (A), Iraq; HID 64 (B), Turkey; and HID 369 (C), Israel, one ssp. agriocrithon: HID 382(D)) and cv. Morex (ssp. vulgare, USA). Purpose: Variant calling to identifie markers associated with a awn length QTL on the distal part of chromosome 7HL
Project description:Hordeum vulgare is one of the first domesticated grains in the world and it has been reported that variations in the light environment have a substantial effect on barley plant development and biological processes. High-throughput RNA-Seq study was performed to investigate the complex transcriptome network required for photomorphogenesis in barley. Seedlings were grown in dark and light conditions and three biological replicates were sampled from each condition. Six libraries from poly-A rich mRNA fraction were subjected to 51bp single-end RNA-seq sequencing.
