Project description:Deep sequencing of mRNA from Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. Cubense 1 and 4 after infecting Musa acuminata 0h and 48h. Analysis of ploy(A)+ RNA of different hours after infecting of Musa acuminata
Project description:We report the first data of RNA sequencing from two different banana cultivars from Musa acuminata cv. Mas Kirana (AA group) genome and Musa balbisiana cv. Klutuk (BB group) genome in response to blood disease infection caused by Ralstonia syzygii subsp. celebesensis (Rsc)
Project description:'Systems-wide' approaches such as microarray RNA-profiling are ideally suited to the study of the complex, overlapping responses of plants to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, commercial microarrays are only available for a limited number of plant species and development costs are so substantial as to be prohibitive for most research groups. Here, we evaluate the use of cross-hybridisation to Affymetrix oligonucleotide GeneChip microarrays to profile the response of the banana (Musa sp.) leaf transcriptome to drought stress using a genomic DNA (gDNA)-based probe-selection strategy to improve the efficiency of detection of differentially expressed Musa transcripts. GeneChip analyses were performed to profile the response of the banana (Musa sp.) leaf transcriptome to drought stress using a genomic DNA (gDNA)-based probe-selection strategy to improve the efficiency of detection of differentially expressed Musa transcripts.
Project description:Fe'i banana (Musa troglodytarum) fruit is carotenoid-rich and has been proposed to be utilized as a functional food. We report the first transcriptome of zebrafish (Danio rerio) intestine that were subjected to 8 weeks of Fe'i banana and Cavendish (Musa acuminata) diet. We found that Fe'i consumption in zebrafish modulated genes related to innate immunity.
