Project description:The current experiment was designed to obtain a broad characterization of the genetic pathways acting in early Aquilegia coerulea floral meristem development. We conducted an in-depth transcriptome profiling of early floral development in A. coerulea at four finely dissected developmental stages, with eight biological replicates per stage. . The developmental window we sequenced sampled stages that started with a late phase of stamen initiation, covered the period of FM termination, and ended with the initial stage of morphogenesis of the floral organs.
