Project description:Here, we integrated high-throughput transcriptome and proteome sequencing to construct a comprehensive protein database for the byssus of Chinese green mussel (Perna viridis), aiming at providing novel insights into the molecular mechanisms of byssal binding to heavy metals.
Project description:The green rice leafhopper Nephotettix cincticeps have two mutualistic symbiotic bacteria (Candidatus Sulcia muelleri and Candidatus Nasuia deltocephalinicola) in its symbiont special organ bacteriome and are also infected to rickettsia. In order to determine immune challenge is induced or not in N. cincticeps, we investigated gene expression of Escherichia coli challenged N. cincticeps.
Project description:The green rice leafhopper Nephotettix cincticeps have two mutualistic symbiotic bacteria (Candidatus Sulcia muelleri and Candidatus Nasuia deltocephalinicola) in its symbiont special organ bacteriome and are also infected to rickettsia. In order to determine immune challenge is induced or not by rickettsia infection in N. cincticeps, we investigated gene expression between rickettsia-infected and rifampicin treated uninfected N. cincticeps colonies.
Project description:The green rice leafhopper (GRH), Nephotettix cincticeps Uhler, is a major insect pest of cultivated rice in temperate Asia. GRH2-near-isogenic line (NIL) TGRH11, GRH4-NIL (TGRH16) and GRH2/GRH4-pyramided line (PYL) TGRH29 were developed by introducing the GRH2 and GRH4 from indica rice (DV85). We identified GRH-inducible genes in respective rice lines. Furthermore, we compared the gene expression levels between NILs/PYL and control plants (T65).
Project description:Near-isogenic lines TW16-4 and TW16-69 were developed from the cross between TN1 (recurrent parent susceptible to rice tungro spherical virus (RTSV)) and Utri Merah (donor parent resistant to RTSV). TW16-4 is susceptible to RTSV, whereas TW16-69 is resistant to RTSV. In order to identify genes which are constitutively differentially expressed between TW16-4 and TW16-69, the gene expression in the two lines were compared at three different conditions (healthy, green leafhopper (GLH)-inoculated, and RTSV-inoculated). Keywords: Constitutive differential expression
