Project description:Waterlogging is a major abiotic stress causing oxygen depletion and carbon dioxide accumulation in the rhizosphere. Barley is more susceptible to waterlogging stress than other cereals. To gain a better understanding of the effect of waterlogging stress in barley, we carried out a genome-wide gene expression analysis in roots of Yerong and Deder2 barley genotypes under waterlogging and control (well-watered) conditions by RNA-Sequencing, using Illumina HiSeq™ 4000 platform.
Project description:Agilent 44k barley microarray was used to screen calcium dependent cold induced genes. Calcium chelator (EGTA) or calcium channel blocker (lanthanum) or phospholipase C activator (mastoparan) pretreatments were performed to block/enhance calcium response in barley seedlings. Calcium depleted and control plants were cold treated and the difference in the gene expression was investigated.
Project description:Effect of high grain protein locus on barley grain protein accumulation. Gene expression levels were analysed in Karl, a low grain protein variety with its near-isogenic line 10_11(has high grain protein locus, chromosome 6)using Barley1 22k affymetrix chip. ****[PLEXdb(http://www.plexdb.org) has submitted this series at GEO on behalf of the original contributor, Aravind Jukanti.

Project description:We hypothesized that the genome segments of cultivated barley should show certain similarity with its ancestral wild barley. Instead of whole genome sequences, we employed RNA-Seq to investigated the genomic origin of modern cultivated barley using some representative wild barley genotypes from the Near East and Tibet, and representative world-wide selections of cultivated barley.
