Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) regulate gene expression in eukaryotes. Plant miRNAs modulate their targets mainly via messenger RNA (mRNA) cleavage. Small RNA targets have been extensively investigated in Arabidopsis using computational prediction, experimental validation, and degradome sequencing. However, small RNA targets are largely unknown in rice (Oryza sativa). Here, we report global identification of small RNA targets using high throughput degradome sequencing in the rice indica cultivar 93-11 (Oryza sativa L. ssp. indica). 177 transcripts targeted by total of 87 unique miRNAs were identified. Of targets for the conserved miRNAs between Arabidopsis and rice, transcription factors comprise around 70% (58 in 82), indicating that these miRNAs act as masters of gene regulatory nodes in rice. In contrast, non-conserved miRNAs targeted diverse genes which provide more complex regulatory networks. In addition, 5 AUXIN RESPONSE FACTORS (ARF) cleaved by the TAS3 derived ta-siRNAs were also detected. A total of 40 sRNA targets were further validated via RNA ligase-mediated 5M-bM-^@M-^Y rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RLM 5M-bM-^@M-^Y-RACE). Our degradome results present a detailed sRNA-target interaction atlas, which provides a guide for the study of the roles of sRNAs and their targets in rice. The degradome sequence of Young inflorescences from Oryza sativa L. ssp. indica (93-11) was sequenced

Project description:The contained data consist of Illumina NextSeq reads generated genomic DNA of Oryza sativa ssp. indica used for ChIP-seq analysis. The inbred control line and a derived epiline LR2 of the 5th selfing were analysed using chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing.
Project description:The contained data consist of Illumina HiSeq reads generated genomic RNA of Oryza sativa ssp. indica used for RNA-seq analysis. The inbred control line and derived epilines LR1, LR2 and LR3 of the 4th selfing were analysed using RNA-seq.
Project description:Oryza sativa Indica group IR29 (salt sensitive) seedlings were subjected to salt stress or control conditions and sampled at five time points over the course of 24 hours. RNA samples extracted were assayed using the Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform.
Project description:The contained data consist of Illumina HiSeq reads generated genomic DNA of Oryza sativa ssp. indica used for WGBS analysis. The inbred control line and derived epilines LR1, LR2 and LR3 of the 4th selfing were analysed using whole-genome bisulfite sequencing. Control and LR2 lines can be found in ArrayExpress E-MTAB-5002 submission, LR1 and LR3 are part of this submission
