Project description:Six different Solanaceae species, Potato (Solanum tubersosum), Tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum), Pepper (Capsicum annuum), Tobacco (Nicotiana tabaccum), Petunia and Nicotiana benthiamana were grown at 25C, 16h light and 8h darkness. Mature leaves were harvested after 4-6 weeks. RNA was isolated using Qiagen RNeasy. Tomato, pepper, petunia, tobacco and N. benthamiana samples were hybridized against potato samples. Keywords: Solanaceae comparative gene expression profiling

Project description:Seven different Solanaceae species, Potato (Solanum tubersosum), Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), Eggplant (Solanum melangena), Pepper (Capsicum annuum), Tobacco (Nicotiana tabaccum), Petunia and Nicotiana benthiamana were subjected to salt stress. The stress applied was 150mM NaCl and control plants were watered without the additional salt. Samples were collected at 0, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 96 hours after the first application of the salt. RNA was isolated using Qiagen RNeasy. Keywords: Direct comparison
Project description:Seven different Solanaceae species, Potato (Solanum tubersosum), Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), Eggplant (Solanum melongena), Pepper (Capsicum annuum), Tobacco (Nicotiana tabaccum), Petunia and Nicotiana benthiamana were subjected to drought stress. Drought stress was applied by stopping watering of the plants, control plants were normally watered with nutrient solution. Samples were collected at 0, 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10 days after the first application of the drought stress. RNA was isolated using Qiagen RNeasy. Keywords: Direct comparison
Project description:Seven different Solanaceae species, Potato (Solanum tubersosum), Tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum), Eggplant (Solanum melangena), Pepper (Capsicum annuum), Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), Petunia and Nicotiana benthamiana were subjected to cold stress. Plants were grown at 25 C for 4-6 weeks after wich cold stress was initiated by exposing the plants to 4 C for 4, 8, 12, 24 and 48 hours. Control samples were isolated from plants just before the cold stress was initated. RNA was isolated using Qiagen RNeasy. Keywords: Direct comparison
Project description:Seven different Solanaceae species, Potato (Solanum tuberosum), Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), Eggplant (Solanum melongena), Pepper (Capsicum annuum), Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum), Petunia and Nicotiana benthamiana were subjected to heat stress. Plants were grown for 4-6 weeks at 25 C after which heat stress was initiated by exposing the plants to 35 C for 6, 12, 24, 48 and 96 hours. Control samples were isolated from plants just before initiating the heat stress. RNA was isolated using Qiagen RNeasy. Keywords: Direct comparison
