Project description:Comparison of gene expression between shoots of root-wounded seedlings and shoots of control seedlings in Arabidopsis. We identified wounding-induced early (30 min) and late (360 min) root to shoot responsive genes (RtS).
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Arabidopsis thaliana wild type (WT) comparing MD (mechanical damage) and HW (herbivore wounding). The differences in the biochemical responses to herbivory seen prompted us to search for less obvious differences between treatments using gene expression profiling. Biological replicates: 4
Project description:To investigate the impact of a plant´s response to abiotic stress on plant defense against subsequent biotic stress, we determined the transcriptional response of Arabidopsis thaliana to low temperature stress (4°C) and subsequent mechanical wounding or larval feeding damage by the herbivores Mamestra brassicae (generalist) and Pieris brassicae (specialist). In total, 21%, 4% and 14% of all genes responsive to M. brassicae, P. brassicae or mechanical wounding were differentially regulated in previously cold-treated compared to untreated plants.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Arabidopsis thaliana wild type (WT) comparing MD (mechanical damage) and HW (herbivore wounding). The differences in the biochemical responses to herbivory seen prompted us to search for less obvious differences between treatments using gene expression profiling. Biological replicates: 4 Two-condition experiment, MD vs. HW Arabidopsis leaves of WT plants. Biological replicates: 4 biological replicates.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Arabidopsis thaliana wild type (WT) and a line mutated in genes encoding plasmodesmata (PD) proteins (PDKO3) comparing MD (mechanical damage) and HW (herbivore wounding). The differences in the biochemical responses to herbivory seen in the PDKO3 when compared to the WT line, together with the absence of growth/developmental phenotypes in the former, prompted us to search for less obvious differences between the lines using gene expression profiling.
Project description:This study aims to identify genes which help to understand similar underlying mechanism in the response to shade and wounding in Arabidopsis thaliana plants.
