Project description:This study demonstrates the usefulness of the API by generating a baseline gut microbiota profile of a healthy population and estimating reference intervals for the functional abundance of manually selected KEGG pathways. API facilitates microbiome research by providing dynamic and customizable tools for estimating reference intervals for gut microbiota functional abundances. Through the API, researchers can rapidly generate gut microbiota functional profiles of healthy populations to use as a baseline for comparison. The API also allows users to manually select specific KEGG pathways and estimate reference intervals for the functional abundance of those pathways. By generating these customized reference intervals, researchers can better understand the expected range of gut microbiota functions in healthy individuals. API enables microbiome studies to go beyond simple taxonomic profiling and delve deeper into the functional potential of gut microbiome communities. In summary, API represents a valuable tool for microbiome researchers that enhances the ability to elucidate connections between gut microbial functions and human health.
Project description:api mutant has been shown to be more resistant to P. palmivora than the A17 wild type (WT) line. In this study we want to compare both WT and mutant plant responses to the pathogen as well as their respective control transciptomes in order to identify api-dependent gene networks. Following germination, A17 or api plants grown in vitro on Agar medium were inoculated (or not = controls) with a P. palmivora zoospores (10^5/ml) and harvested 16 hours after inoculation. Three independent repeats were performed.
