Project description:Comparisons of gene expression profiles between testis and ovary of juvenile and wild brooders were made through a cDNA microarray in the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon). Differentially expressed genes were identified through the microarray analysis, and the microarray results were confirmed by real-time PCR. Selected genes were further characterized.
Project description:Microarray analysis of the gill tissues of WSSV infected shrimp (P. monodon) at different time intervals 6 hrs, 24 hrs, 48 hrs and moribund stage of post WSSV infection was carried out to identify differentially expressed genes in response to WSSV infection. The shrimps in WSSV challenege experiment were challenged through intra muscular route with known concentration of virus. The important immune genes identified would be further characterized by sequence analysis and gene expression profile would be validated by real time PCR One-color experiment,Organism: Penaeus monodon, Custom Penaeus monodon (Black Tiger Shrimp) 8x60k designed by Genotypic Technology Private Limited (AMADID: 041733), Labeling kit: Agilent Quick-Amp labeling Kit (p/n5190-0442)
Project description:Comparisons of gene expression profiles in hepatopancreas and ovary of domesticated broodstock at different ovarian maturation stages were made through a cDNA microarray in the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon). Differentially expressed genes were identified through the microarray analysis, and the microarray results were confirmed by real-time PCR. Selected genes were further characterized.
Project description:Comparisons of gene expression profiles between testis and ovary of juvenile and wild brooders were made through a cDNA microarray in the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon). Differentially expressed genes were identified through the microarray analysis, and the microarray results were confirmed by real-time PCR. Selected genes were further characterized. A cDNA microarray was constructed from the EST libraries of P. monodon, consisting of 5,568 features. RNA samples were extracted from both testes and ovaries of pooled juveniles (4 month-old, pooled from n=114 ), individual juvenile and broodstocks from West sides of Thailand. The RNA from ovaries were labeled with Cy3 dye as a reference and those of testes were labeled with Cy5 dye.
