Project description:We seqeunced mRNA from the bacterial pathogen 'Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum" during its association with the psyllid vector Bactericera cockerelli.
Project description:This study evaluated the transcriptional reprogramming of a susceptible genotype (Pera sweet orange) challenged with the pathogenic bacteria Candidatus Liberibacter americanus (CaLam), using a customized 385K microarray containing about 32,000 unigene transcripts. For the microarray experiment were used symptomatic leaves from two Pera sweet orange plants inoculated with either bark or bud pieces infected with Candidatus Liberibacter americanus and two non-infected control plants.
Project description:In this study we compare the transcriptome response of two potato varieties Atlantic and NY138 to the infection by Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum. Four weeks old potato plant grown in growth chamber were infested with potato psyllid to transmit the pathogen Candidatus Liberibacter solanacearum. Three weeks after infestation leaf samples were collected for RNA extraction and transcriptome analysis. This is the first transcriptome study on this potato disease.
