Project description:To reduce the level of major second messenger inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate (InsP3), we generated transgenic tomato plants (cv. Micro-Tom) that are expressing InsP 5-ptase gene. To understand effects of transgene (InsP 5-ptase) on gene expression we carried out microarray analysis from different parts of transgenic and control (wild type, empty vector control) tomato plants; Objectives for this study included the identification of genes that were up or down-regulated at the transcriptional level in transgenic tomato plants expressing InsP 5-ptase gene Experiment Overall Design: Ripe fruits of wild type, vector control and two transgenic tomato lines expressing InsP 5-ptase gene were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays Experiment Overall Design: First two leaves of 10 day old light grown in vitro seedlings of wild type, vector control and two transgenic tomato lines expressing InsP 5-ptase gene were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays Experiment Overall Design: 10 day old etiolated root tips of wild type, vector control and two transgenic tomato lines expressing InsP 5-ptase gene were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays
Project description:Comparison of the endogenous small RNA content of tomato leaves and fruits. Size fractionated small RNA from total RNA extracts was ligated to adapters, purified again and reverse transcribed. After PCR amplification the sample was subjected to 454 high throughput pyrosequencing. Please see www.454.com for details of the sequencing technology. Note: Raw data files were not available from 454 at the time this experiment was carried out.
Project description:In the present study, we demonstrated that application of CaCl2 to ‘Micro Tom’ tomato fruit (mature green stage) delayed fruit senescence and mature.
Project description:To characterize the PTI response of tomato and the effect of the delivery of a subset of effectors, we performed an RNA-seq analysis of tomato Rio Grande prf3 leaves challenged with either the flgII-28 peptide or the following bacterial strains: Agrobacterium tumefaciens GV2260, Pseudomonas fluorescens 55, Pseudomonas putida KT2440, Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst) DC3000, Pst DC3000 deltahrcQ-U deltafliC and Pst DC3000 deltaavrPto deltaavrPtoB. NOTE: Samples in SRA were assigned the same sample accession. This is incorrect as there are different samples, hence âSource Nameâ was replaced with new values. Comment[ENA_SAMPLE] contains the original SRA sample accessions.
Project description:We sequenced mRNA from immature green (15 days after anthesis) and red (Breaker+10 days) tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) fruit tissues from plants over-expressing SlGLK1 and SlGLK2 and from control plants 'M82' to compare gene expression levels between transgenic fruit and the control. Note: Samples in SRA were assigned the same sample accession. This is incorrect as there are different samples, hence “Source Name” was replaced with new values. Comment[ENA_SAMPLE] contains the original SRA sample accessions.
Project description:The tomato SlWRKY3 transcription factor was overexpressed in cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum)and transgenic plants transcriptome was compared to that of wild-type plants.
