Project description:Transcriptomic analysis of brown fat from fat-specific Afadin depleted mice either at thermoneutrality or after 6 houts of cold exposure (5 degree celsius)
Project description:Comparison of gene expression pattern of subcutaneous adipose tissue from mice housed in cold (6-degree Celsius) or in thermal neutrality (30-degree celsius).Verify canonical white adipose tissue beiging pathways and genes that are regulated by cold-exposure as well as identify gap junction genes that are regulated by cold in white adipoes tissue.
Project description:Comparative transcriptome profiles of cotton (G. hirsutum L. cv. Bikaneri narma) during boll development stages (0, 2, 5 and 10 dpa) under bollworm infested biotic stress. Cotton is one of the most commercially important fibre crops in the world and used as a source for natural textile fibre and cottonseed oil. The biotic stress is one of the major constraints for crop production. Cotton bollworm (Helicoverpa armigera) is one the major insect pest in cotton and drastically damages the cotton boll. To decipher the molecular mechanisms involved in cotton boll/fibre cell development, transcriptome analysis has been carried out by comparing G. hirsutum L cv. Bikaneri narma cotton boll samples induced by biotic stress (bollworm infested) and that their respective control cotton bolls collected under field conditions. Cotton bolls were collected at fibre initiation (0, 2 dpa/days post anthesis) and elongation (5, 10 dpa) stages for both control and biotic stress condition and gene expression profiles were analyzed by Affymetrix cotton GeneChip Genome array.
Project description:Transcriptome analysis in cotton under drought stress. To study the molecular response of drought stress in cotton under field condition global gene expression analysis was carried out in leaf tissue. Gossypium hirsutum cv. Bikaneri Nerma was used for the gene expression analysis. Cotton plants were subjected to drought stress at peak flowering stage. Leaf samples were collected when the soil moisture content was 19.5% which is 50% of the normal control plots. Gene expression profiles in drought induced and their respective control samples were analyzed using Affymertix cotton Genechip Genome arrays to study the global changes in the expression of genome.
Project description:This project is aiming to examine the molecular response of the blue mussel (Mytilus edulis) to increased air temperatures and reduced salinity under laboratory conditions. There are 5 treatment groups (n=5), with group A representing the control (salinity 23percent salinity and temperature 5 degree celsius), group B ( 23percent salinity 30 degree celsius), group C (23percent salinity 33 degree celsius), group D (15percent salinity 5 degree celsius), group E (15percent salinity 30 degree celsius), group F (15percent salinity33 degree celsius), group G (5percent salinity 5 degree celsius).
Project description:Transcriptome analysis in cotton during fibre development stages. To study the molecular response of drought stress in cotton under field condition global gene expression analysis was carried out at fibre development stages (0, 5, 10 and 20 dpa/Days post anthesis). Gossypium hirsutum cv. Bikaneri Nerma was used for the gene expression analysis. Cotton plants were subjected to drought stress at peak flowering stage. Samples were collected when the soil moisture content was 19.5% which is 50% of the normal control plots.
