Project description:The intent of the experiment was to provide, from gene expression analysis, explanatory candidate genes related to density responses in Brassica napus (canola). We performed Illumina non-stranded single-end RNA-seq of leaves tissues in greenhouse-grown Lynx and Monty cultivars. We used a green filter that simulates neighboring plants along with control plants with no screen.
Project description:mRNA expression profiling of the embryo, endosperm (micropylar, peripheral, chalazal), and seed coat (outer, inner, chalazal, chalazal proliferating tissue) of the developing Brassica napus seed. Tissues were isolated using laser microdissection (LMD) from Brassica napus seeds at the globular, heart, and mature green stages of seed development.
Project description:The fullerenes, a kind of carbon nanoparticles, have potential for enhanced stress tolerance in plants. While the positive effects of polyhydroxy fullerene—fullerol on plants in response to drought at the physiological level have been documented, the molecular mechanism in Brassica napus are not entirely understood. In this study, exogenous fullerol was applied to the leaves of B. napus seedlings given drought. The leaves of B. napus seedlings in each treatment (sufficient water condition, drought, and drought combined with fullerol) were used to conduct the molecular mechanism using transcriptomic analysis.
Project description:Brassica napus leaves(18 days old) were inoculated by Sclerotinia sclerotiorum with leaves harvested after 12, 24 and 48 h. Arabidopsis thaliana full-genome 70mer microarray representing at least 23,686 genes were used.
Project description:Transcription profiling of Brassica rapa, Brassica oleracea and Brassica napus I and II The nuclear genomes of the resynthesised B. napus lines should be identical but, as one (B. napus I) involved a cross of B. oleracea onto B. rapa, and the other (B. napus II) involved a cross of B rapa onto B. oleracea, they differ in cytoplasm, and hence contain different chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes.
Project description:Brassica oleracea and Brassica napus are comprised of diverse cultivars that collectively constitute an important global food source. Of those, the Brassica oleracea convar. acephala cultivar group containing var. sabellica and var. palmifolia and Brassica napus var. pabularia, collectively known as kale, are nutritious leafy greens consumed for their abundance of vitamins and micronutrients. Typified by their curly, serrated or wavy leaves, kale varieties have been primarily defined based on their leaf morphology and geographic origin, despite maintaining complex genetic backgrounds. With changes in the diel molecular environment directly tied to multiple agronomic traits across the food production landscape (e.g. time-of-day nutritional content) and kale representing a candidate crop for vertical farming, we selected nine diverse kale varieties encompassing a wide swath of consumer kale varieties for growth under LED lights using precise real-world dawn/dusk growth conditions followed by quantitative GC-MS metabolomic and LC-MS proteomic analyses. With plant growth and development driven by the day-to-day molecular activities of plants, we harvested kale leaf tissue at end-of-day (ED) and end-of-night (EN) time-points for all metabolomic and proteomic analyses. Our results reveal that kale forms 2 distinct groups, defined by their diel metabolome and proteome signatures primarily involving amino acids and sugars along, with proteome changes in carbon and nitrogen metabolism, mRNA splicing, protein translation and light harvesting. Together, our analysis have derived robust quantitative insights into the diel growth and development landscape of kale, significantly advancing our fundamental understanding of this nutritious leafy green for next-generation breeding and biotechnology.
