Project description:P. maximowiczii × P. trichocarpa and P. nigra × P. maximowiczii plants were grown in the field, each pure and mixed with Robinia pseudoacacia, at two locations differing in soil nutrient levels. After 3 years of growing, samples of developing xylem were harvested and analyzed by RNA-seq.
Project description:P. nigra × P. maximowiczii plants were grown in the field, each in monoculture and in stands mixed with Robinia pseudoacacia, at two locations differing in soil nutrient levels. After 3 years of growing under ambient weather conditions, leaf samples were harvested and analyzed by RNA-seq.
Project description:P. nigra × P. maximowiczii plants were grown in the field, each in monoculture and in stands mixed with Robinia pseudoacacia, at two locations differing in soil nutrient levels. After 4 years of growing under ambient weather conditions, leaf samples were harvested and analyzed by RNA-seq.
Project description:Microbial communities in the rhizosphere make significant contributions to crop health and nutrient cycling. However, their ability to perform important biogeochemical processes remains uncharacterized. Important functional genes, which characterize the rhizosphere microbial community, were identified to understand metabolic capabilities in the maize rhizosphere using GeoChip 3.0-based functional gene array method. Triplicate samples were taken for both rhizosphere and bulk soil, in which each individual sample was a pool of four plants or soil cores. To determine the abundance of functional genes in the rhizosphere and bulk soils, GeoChip 3.0 was used.

Project description:P. maximowiczii × P. trichocarpa (Hybride 275), P. maximowiczii × P. trichocarpa (Matrix 11), P. nigra × P. maximowiczii (Max 1) and P. trichocarpa plants were grown in the field, each in monoculture and in stands mixed with Robinia pseudoacacia, at two locations differing in soil nutrient levels. After 2 years of growing under ambient weather conditions, leaf samples were harvested and analyzed by RNA-seq.
