Project description:Subsequently, using a combination of BSA-seq, transcriptomic sequencing (RNA-seq), and proteomic sequencing approaches, we identified the candidate gene Nitab4.5_0008674g0010 that encodes dihydroneopterin aldolase as a factor associated with tobacco leaf yellowing.
Project description:The first GSSM of V. vinifera was reconstructed (MODEL2408120001). Tissue-specific models for stem, leaf, and berry of the Cabernet Sauvignon cultivar were generated from the original model, through the integration of RNA-Seq data. These models have been merged into diel multi-tissue models to study the interactions between tissues at light and dark phases.
Project description:Ssr4 was experimentally proven to be required for radial growth, aerial conidation, insect infection and virulence-related cellular events in the insect mycopathogen Beauveria bassiana. For in-depth insight into the essential role of Ssr4 in the insect mycopathogen, transcriptomic analysis was carried out via high throughput sequencing (RNA-Seq), resulting in nearly one fourth of the whole genome differentially expressed in the Dssr4 mutant versus wild-type strain.
Project description:All the reports on insect small RNAs come from holometabolous insects. However, small RNAs of hemimetabolous insects have not yet been investigated.Study of hemimetabolous insect small RNAs could provide more insights into evolution and function of small RNAs in hemi- and holometabolous insects. The locust is an important, economically harmful hemimetabolous insect and its phase changes is an interesting phenomenon.Here, we used high-throughput sequencing to characterize and compare the small RNA transcriptomes of gregarious and solitary phases in locusts. We found abundant small RNAs and their different expression profiles in the two phases.
Project description:We report small RNA sequencing of the entomopathogenic nematode Steinernema carpocapsae. The nematodes were grown in liquid culture in homogenates of pig kidney/fat and infective juveniles were gathered. Then Galleria mellonella insect haemolymph was added to simulate insect infection, control nematodes weren't added haemolymph. Nematodes were collected after two hours after haemolymph addition.
