Project description:Illumina HiSeq2000 technology was used to generate mRNA profiles from Vaccinium myrtillus mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal roots with or without Cadmium treatment. 150bp reads were generated and aligned to a Vaccinium myrtillus de novo assembly as reference using CLC Genomics Workbench 8.
Project description:Transcriptomic data was obtained from adults of the stink bug Nezara viridula to complement biochemical enzymatic activity analysis performed for digestive enzymes. Pooled reads from all sample types were used for de novo assembly of a reference transcriptome. After mapping reads to reference, differential expression was performed between the different tissues of the same diet or between the same tissue in different diets.
Project description:This is an auto-generated model with COBRA Matlab toolbox. The gadMorTrinigy de novo Trinity transcript assembly and peptide sequences are available at https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.c.5168303.v2
Project description:We used the Virochip microarray to detect and discover a novel adenovirus, TMAdV (titi monkey adenovirus). We used custom-commercial microarrays from Agilent Technologies. The microarray platform GPL11662 consists of 62,976 probes, of which 19,058 probes are 70-mer viral oligonucleotides (the union of the V3 and V4 platforms -- please see Wang, et al., PNAS, 2002; Chiu, et al., Clin Infect Dis, 2006; Chiu, et al., PNAS, 2008).
Project description:itis vinifera cv. Tannat is largely cultivated in Uruguay for the production of high quality red wines. Its most notable characteristic is an elevated content of polyphenolic compounds, which provide an intense purple color and remarkable antioxidant properties to the wine. To characterize the genetic components encoding this important phenotypic characteristic, the genome of the Uruguayan Tannat clone UY11 was sequenced to 134X coverage using the Illumina technology and assembled with a mixed approach of de novo assembly and iterative mapping on the PN40024 reference genome. An approach based on both reference-guided annotation and de novo transcript assembly of RNA-Seq data allowed the definition of 3,673 genes not previously annotated in PN40024 that we consider novel, and the discovery of 2,228 genes not shared with the grapevine reference genome that we consider private to Tannat. Expression analysis showed that private genes contributed substantially (more than 50%) to the overall expression of enzymes involved in phenol and polyphenol biosynthesis indicating that the dispensable portion of the grapevine genome contains many private genes which are likely to contribute to the peculiar phenotypic characteristics of this grapevine variety.
Project description:We describe an application of deep sequencing and de novo assembly of short RNA reads to investigate small interfering (si)RNAs mediated immunity in leaf samples from eight tree taxa naturally occurring in Wytham Woods, Oxfordshire, UK. BLAST search for homologues of contigs in the GenBank identified siRNA populations against a number of RNA viruses and a Ty1-copia retrotransposons in these tree species.
