Project description:Transcriptional profiling in young flowers (stage 8) of Arabidopsis wild type control plants and sdg2-1 mutant is performed using Aligent’s Whole Arabidopsis Gene Expression Microarray (G2519F, V4, 4x44K). A significant number of genes involved in gametophyte development are found differentially regulated in the sdg2-1 mutant.
Project description:Belonging to the Carmovirus family, Turnip crinkle virus (TCV) is a positive-strand RNA virus that can infect Arabidopsis. Most Arabidopsis ecotypes are highly susceptible to TCV, except for the TCV resistant line Di-17 derived from ecotype Dijon. Previous studies showed that many of the stress related genes have changed significantly after TCV infection. Besides the virus-triggered genes, small RNAs also play critical roles in plant defense by triggering either transcriptional and/or post-transcriptional gene silencing. In this study, TCV-infected wildtype Arabidopsis thaliana and dcl1-9 mutant plants were subjected to transcriptome and small RNA analysis to investigate the role of DCL1 in virus defense network.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Arabidopsis wild-type (Col0) control seedlings with corresponding mutant seedlings is performed using Aligent's Whole Arabidopsis Gene Expression Microarray (G2519F, V4, 4x44K).
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of Arabidopsis wild-type (Col0) control flower buds or seedlings with corresponding mutant flower buds or seedlings is performed using Aligent's Whole Arabidopsis Gene Expression Microarray (G2519F, V4, 4x44K).
