Project description:We analyze the effect of the downexpression of the ARES lncRNA (AT4G14548) on the transcriptome of Arabidopsis roots. 12 DAS roots were harvested and total RNA extracted for RNA sequencing.
Project description:Plant roots located in the upper soil layers are prone to experience high temperatures. To gain insight into the effect of high temperature on root development and functioning, we exposed five-day-old Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings grown on agar plates to 30 °C for 48 hours, and compared the gene expression profile in the root tip with that from seedlings that remained at 22 °C.
