Project description:We compared the gene expression of wild-type Col-0 and a T-DNA mutant SALK_116381C (opr2-1). We either infected or mock-infected the plants with the root knot nematode Meloidogyne incognita and measured the root transcriptome after 0, 1, 4, and 7 days post infection using RNA-seq. The aim of the experiment was to determine whether opr2-1 affected gene expression patterns induced by nematode infection.
Project description:The goal of this study is to compare the transcriptome profilling (RNA-seq) of galls (G) formed in Arabidopsis roots infected by Meloidogyne javanica at 3 days post infection compared to uninfected root segments (RC).
