Project description:To dissect the gene regulatory networks operating during Scarlet Runner Bean seed development, we identified the binding sites genome-wide for transcription factor in Scarlet Runner Bean seeds during seed development using ChIP-seq
Project description:We used laser capture microdissection (LCM) to capture globular scarlet runner bean embryo propers and suspensors, and profiled the transcriptomes of these two embryo regions using next-generation sequencing. Our long-term goal is to understand the region-specific differentiation processes that occur during early embryo development and how genes are activated specifically in the suspensor and embryo proper. Illumina sequencing of transcripts from laser-captured embryo proper and suspensor regions of scarlet runner bean globular stage embryos. Two biological replicates were collected for each embryo region.
