Project description:Vitis vinifera endogenous small RNAs Size fractionated small RNA from total RNA extracts of Vitis vinifera leaves, inflorescences, tendrils and small berries were ligated to adapters, purified again and reverse transcribed. After PCR amplification the sample was subjected to Solexa/Illumina high throughput pyrosequencing. Please see www.illumina.com for details of the sequencing technology.
Project description:Bud endodormancy induction response of two genotypes (Seyval, a hybrid white wine grape and Vitis riparia, PI588259, a native North American grape species) was compared under long (15 h) and short (13 h) photoperiods. Proteins were extracted from both genotypes for all time points and experimental conditions. The proteins were separaed by 2D-PAGE, trypsin digested, and the peptides identified with a MALDI-TOF-TOF mass spectrometer. A master gel was made and mapped with all proteins from both genotypes. The proteins were identified by matching the peptide sequences against the 8X Vitis vinifera grape genome in NCBI. This study was funded by NSF grant DBI064755 and is the result of a collaboration between Dr. Anne Fennell at South Dakota State University and Dr. Grant R. Cramer at the University of Nevada, Reno.
Project description:The objective of the study was to uncover the developmental dynamics in the artificially induced somatic embryogenesis of Vitis vinifera on the transcriptome level.
Project description:Seedless varieties are of particular importance to the table-grape and raisin industries. Gibberellin (GA) application is widely used in the early stages of seedless berry development to increase berry size and economic value. However, the underlying mechanism of GA induction of berry enlargement is not well understood. Here, RNA-sequencing analysis of âCentennial Seedlessâ (Vitis vinifera L.) berries treated with GA3 12 days after flowering is reported.
Project description:Size fractionated small RNA from total RNA extracts of Vitis vinifera leaves were ligated to adapters, purified again and reverse transcribed. After PCR amplification the sample was subjected to Illumina high throughput pyrosequencing. The kit used is TrueSeq Small RNA kit Please see www.illumina.com for details of the sequencing technology.
Project description:Vitis vinifera RNA degradome Isolated polyadenylated RNA from total RNA extracts of Vitis vinifera leaves, were ligated to 5'-adapter that include san MmeI recognition site. The ligated products were purified again, reverse transcribed and cleaved with MmeI. The 5' fragments were purified from gel and to a 3'- dsDNA adapter and PCR amplified. After PCR amplification the sample was subjected to Solexa/Illumina high throughput pyrosequencing. Please see www.illumina.com for details of the sequencing technology.
