Project description:In order to verify the production of viroid specific small RNAs (vd-sRNA) by viroids upon infecting plants, the tomato plants (Lycopersicum esculentum cv. Rutgers) were inoculated with Potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) variants. After 21-days of post inoculation, total RNA was extracted and subjected for deep-sequencing using Illumina platform. Obtained data was analyzed for the presence of PSTVd specific small RNAs.
Project description:In order to analyze the production of small RNA (sRNA) by Potato spindle tuber viroid- RG1 strain (PSTVd-RG1) upon infecting the plants, the tomato plants (Lycopersicum esculentum cv. Rutgers) were inoculated with the PSTVd-RG1. After 21-days of post inoculation, total RNA was extracted and subjected for deep-sequencing using Illumina MiSeq platform. The primers were trimmed and the 21- to 24-nt long small RNA species were filtered after quality check of the raw data.
Project description:In order to analyze the production of small RNA (sRNA) by Potato spindle tuber viroid-intermediate strain (PSTVd-I) upon infecting the plants, the tomato plants (Lycopersicum esculentum cv. Rutgers) were inoculated with the PSTVd-I. After 21-days of post inoculation, total RNA was extracted and subjected for deep-sequencing using Illumina MiSeq platform. The primers were trimmed and the 21- to 24-nt long small RNA species were filtered after quality check of the raw data.
Project description:In order to analyze the production of small RNA (sRNA) by viroids upon infecting the plants, the tomato plants (Lycopersicum esculentum cv. Rutgers) were inoculated with the variants of Potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd). After 21-days of post inoculation, total RNA was extracted and subjected for deep-sequencing using Illumina platform. The primers were trimmed and only 21- to 24-nt long small RNAs were filtered after quality check of the raw data. The filtered 21- to 24-nt was mapped against the genomic and antigenomic strands of the respective PSTVd variants using standard pattern matching algorithm. The profiling of viroid derived sRNA (vd-sRNA) revealed that the viroids are susceptible to host RNA silencing mechanism. Evaluation of the vd-sRNA production in PSTVd infected tomato plants by high-throughput sequencing of small RNAs.
Project description:To compare the genome-wide transcriptional effect of ABA and iSB09 in tomato plants, we performed RNA-seq analysis of mock-, 10 uM ABA- or 20 uM iSB09-treated plants. Differential gene expression analysis between mock- and ABA-treated or iSB09-treated seedlings was done with DESeq2 and genes with an absolute value of log2 fold change (log2FC) > 1 or (log2FC) < -1 and p-adjusted value (padj) < 0.05 were selected. iSB09 upregulated and downregulated genes represent a subset of the ABA-responsive genes, which reflects the activation of PYL1-like and PYL4-like ABA receptors in tomato seedlings.
Project description:The tomato SlWRKY3 transcription factor was overexpressed in cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum)and transgenic plants transcriptome was compared to that of wild-type plants.
