Project description:Genome-wide Transcriptional Analysis of Genes Associated with Drought Stress in Gossypium herbaceum root This experiment was designed to investigate the molecular mechanism associated with drought tolerance in root tissue of Gossypium herbaceum. The gene expression profiles of the root tissue using Affymetrix Cotton Genome Array were compared with drought tolerant and drought sensitive genotype of G.herbaceum under drought stress and watered condition. Many genes in various molecular function or biological processes were over- or under-represented between drought tolerant and sensitive genotype, suggesting various molecular mechanism and biochemical pathways are interlinked and tolerant genotype have developed multiple mechanisms as an adaptory behavior against drought stress.

The transcriptional responses of root tissue in drought tolerant and sensitive genotype of Gossypium herbaceum under drought stress have been investigated. Physiological responses to drought stress, such as stomatal conductance, water use efficiency, root bending assay on different mannitiol concentration were also measured as indicators of imposed drought stress. Total RNA was isolated from root tissue from both genotype under drought stress and normal irrigated condition with three biological replicates
Project description:Comparative genomics has emerged as a promising means of unravelling the molecular networks underlying complex traits such as drought tolerance.We used Affymetrix microarray to detail the global programme of gene expression underlying in drought and watered condition and identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes during this process.leaf tissue were used for the expression analysis during watered and drought condition with three biological replicates for each case. Here we assess the genotype-dependent component of the drought-induced transcriptome response in two contrasting cotton (Gossypium spp) genotypes differing in drought tolerance. Leaf tissue were used during drought and watered condtion for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to obtain differential expression pattern during drought and wtered condition.
