Project description:This study provides a first large-scale cloning and characterization of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum milRNAs and milRNAs candidates. Two microRNA-like RNAs (milRNAs) and 42 milRNA candidates were identified by sequence analysis. These milRNAs and candidates provide new insights into the functional roles of small RNAs and adds new resources for the study of plant pathogenic fungi. We constructed a small RNA library from Sclerotinia sclerotiorum.

Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE15337: Gene expression profiling soybean stem tissue early response to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum 1 GSE15338: Gene expression profiling soybean stem tissue early response to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum 3 GSE15339: Gene expression profiling soybean stem tissue early response to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum 4 GSE15340: Gene expression profiling soybean stem tissue early response to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum 2 Refer to individual Series
Project description:The Solexa/Illumina’s digital gene expression (DGE) system was used to gain insight into the broad range of transcriptional responses during the vegetative growth, sclerotial development, myceliogenic germination, carpogenic germination, apothecium formation (stipe) and infection of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. We obtained a sequencing depth of approximately 3.3 million clean tags per cDNA library. Tag mapping indicated that these six cDNA libraries in total represented more than 66.7% of all of the genes presented in the predicted transcript databases of the Broad Institute. Thouthands of differentially expressed genes were indentified during the various developmental stages compared to the vegetative growth stage. Our results could increase and deepen the understanding of the vegetative and reproductive development as well as the infection of S. sclerotiorum
