Project description:mRNA expression profiling of the embryo, endosperm (micropylar, peripheral, chalazal), and seed coat (outer, inner, chalazal, chalazal proliferating tissue) of the developing Brassica napus seed. Tissues were isolated using laser microdissection (LMD) from Brassica napus seeds at the globular, heart, and mature green stages of seed development.
Project description:High temperature stress results in yield loss and alterations to seed composition during seed filling in oilseed rape (Brassica napus). However, the mechanism underlying this heat response is poorly understood. In this study, we employed a microarray analysis with silique walls and seeds from the developing siliques (20 days after flowering) of Brassica napus that had undergone heat stress.

Project description:Time course of gene expression profiles during seed development and maturation in Brassica napus were studied using Combimatrix Brassica microarray.
Project description:Time course of gene expression profiles during seed development and maturation in Brassica napus were studied using Combimatrix Brassica microarray. The time course expression of 90K Brassica napus EST contigs were measured at 8 developing seed stages of 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 and 45 DAF (days after flowering) using single color microarray
