Project description:To understand plant adaptation to heat stress, gene expression profiles of Arabidopsis leaves under heat stress, during recovery and control condition were obtained using microarray. Microarray data listed responsible candidate genes for glycerolipid metabolism.
Project description:Arabidopsis thaliana and Arabidopsis lyrata are two closely related Brassicaceae species, which are used as models for plant comparative biology. They differ by lifestyle, predominant mating strategy, ecological niches and genome organization. To identify heat stress induced genes, we performed RNA-sequencing of rosette leaves from mock-treated, heat-stressed and heat-stressed-recoved plants of both species.
