Project description:Sound vibration (SV) causes various developmental and physiological changes in plants. It strongly suggests the existence of sophisticated molecular mechanisms for SV perception and signaling in plants. However, the underlying molecular mechanism of SV-mediated plant responses remains elusive. Herein, we investigated the transcript changes in Arabidopsis thaliana upon five different single frequencies of SV treatment.
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.
Project description:Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 plants were compared to sir1-1 T-DNA insertion mutants to investigate transcript levels of sulfur metabolism related genes under standard conditions.
Project description:In this study, we describe the impact of genetic variation on transcript abundance in an F2 population of Arabidopsis thaliana. The RNA-seq resource generated by this study is suitable for expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) mapping. From the aligned RNA-seq reads, and available genomic data for each of the parents of the cross, we imputed the genomes of each F2 individual (to allow genetic mapping of RNA abundance traits; briefly, genetic differences in aligned RNA-seq reads were used to impute each F2 genome). Our results show that heritable differences on gene expression can be detected using F2 populations (that is, single F2 plants), and shed light on the control of expression differences among strains of this reference plant.
