Project description:Oil palm leaves were analysed via proteomics approach to identify the differentially-expressed proteins under Red Palm Weevil infestation on the first, third and sixth week post-infestation. The comparison was made among three groups; the control (C), physical wounding by drilling (wounded,W) and the red palm weevil larva infestation (Infested, I)
Project description:Oil palm breeding and seed development have been hindered due to the male parent's incapacity to produce male inflorescence as a source of pollen under normal conditions. On the other hand, a young oil palm plantation has a low pollination rate due to a lack of male flowers. These are the common problem of sex ratio in the oil palm industry. Nevertheless, the regulation of sex ratio in oil palm plants is a complex mechanism and remains an open question until now. Researchers have previously used complete defoliation to induce male inflorescences, but the biological and molecular mechanisms underlying this morphological change have yet to be discovered. Here, we present an RNA-seq dataset from three early stages of an oil palm inflorescence under normal conditions and complete defoliation stress. This transcriptomic dataset is a valuable resource to improve our understanding of sex determination mechanisms in oil palm inflorescence.
Project description:H3K4me3 profiling of OSCC secondary (2ary) recipient primary tumors (PTs) following in vivo exposure to control (CTRL) or palm oil-enriched (PALM) diet in primary recipient mice
Project description:Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) is one of the most important oil-producing crops in the world. However, the demand for oil from this crop will increase in the future. A comparative gene expression profile of the oil palm leaves was needed in order to understand the key factors that influence the oil production. Here, we reported an RNA-seq dataset from three different oil yields and three different genetic populations of oil palm. All raw sequencing reads were obtained from an Illumina NextSeq 500 platform. We also provide a list of the genes and their expression levels resulting from the RNA-sequencing. This transcriptomic dataset will provide a valuable resource for increasing oil yield.
Project description:To investigate the role of lncRNAs on lipid metabolism, we did RNAseq to find the difference among large yellow croaker fed with fish oil (FO), soybean oil (SO), olive oil (OO), and palm oil (PO) diets
Project description:C57Bl/6J mice were put on a low fat diet (10 kcal% palm oil) or high fat diet (60 kcal% palm oil), combined with a low dietary Mg2+ (0.03 w/w% or 0.21 w/w%) for a period of 17 weeks. White adipose tissue was harvested and total RNA isolated using TRIzol, of which 5 samples per group were sent to BGI-China for RNA-Sequencing.
