Project description:Measurement of changes in the mRNA transcript abundance of 1709 cDNAs in desiccated (5% RWC) and hydrated (100% RWC) Xerophyta humilis leaves and roots, and in mature seeds.
Project description:Measurement of changes in the mRNA transcript abundance of 1709 cDNAs in Xerophyta humilis leaves at 6 relative water contents (RWC) (100%, 80%, 60%, 40%, 20% and 5%RWC respectively).
Project description:Measurement of changes in the mRNA transcript abundance of 1709 cDNAs in desiccated (5% RWC) and hydrated (100% RWC) Xerophyta humilis leaves and roots, and in mature seeds. 3105 cDNA clones (corresponding to 1709 unique cDNAs) were randomly selected from X. humilis cDNA libraries (Leaf Dehydration (LD), Leaf Rehydration (LR), Root Dehydration (RD) and Root Rehydration (RR)), amplified by PCR, and printed on each glass slide multiple times (ranging from 4 to 12X), such that each printed block contained a random unbiased mixture of cDNAs from the 4 different cDNA libraries. Total RNA extracted from each X. humilis leaf, root and seed sample was labelled with Cy3 and hybridized to the printed cDNA arrays. Data was recorded for three biological replicates for each of the samples being investigated.

Total RNA extracted from each X. humilis leaf sample was linearly amplified, labelled with Cy3, and simultaneously hybridized with Cy5 labelled common reference RNA, to the printed cDNA arrays. The reference RNA comprised equal amounts of total RNA pooled from 6 different RWC experimental samples. Data was recorded for five biological replicates for each of the 6 RWC stages being investigated.
Project description:RNA-Seq data from the resurrection plant Xerophyta schlechteri during desiccation in three tissues: non-senescent, senescent and pre-senescent during dehydration and rehydration.
Project description:We performed Chromatine ImmunoPrecipitation of the Histone H3K27me3 mark in 1- and 5mm Medicago (A17) radicles which were desiccation sensitive (R1 and R5) and desiccation tolerant (R1P). Roots at 1mm were dried for 72hs and are desiccation sensitive, roots at 1mm plus incubation in PEG 8000 at -1.7Mpa for 72h at 10°C then dried for 72hs are desiccation tolerant and roots at 5mm dried for 72h are desication sensitive
