Project description:This study characterizes the transcriptomic alterations of Laccaria bicolor S238N during interaction with Pseudotsuga menziesii. Three time-points were analyzed, two weeks, four weeks and six weeks after inoculation and compared to the transcriptome of free-living mycelium from Laccaria bicolor S238N.
Project description:In order to get insights into the ability of ectomycorrhizal fungi to perceive their biotic environment as well as into the mechanisms of the interactions between ectomycorrhizal fungi and soil bacteria, we analysed the transcriptomic response of the ectomycorrhizal fungus L. bicolor and the strain Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf29Arp during their interactions in vitro. We performed six hybridizations (shotgun DNA microarray) with samples derived from Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf29Arp cultivated alone or with Laccaria bicolor S238N in vitro (3 control biological replicates and 3 biological replicates with L. bicolor)
