Project description:High throughput Illumina sequencing of poly-A selected RNA from Arabidopsis Col and Ler reciprocal F1 hybrid embryo and endosperm tissue isolated at 6-7 days after pollination to identify imprinted genes.
Project description:Plant reproduction depends on the concerted activation of many genes to assure the correct communication between pollen and pistil. Here we queried the whole transcriptome of Arabidopsis thaliana in order to identify genes with specific reproductive functions. We used the ATH1 whole genome array to profile wild-type unpollinated pistils and unfertilized ovules in comparison with the expression profile of pistils 0.5, 3.5 and 8.0 hours after pollination KEYWORDS: time course
Project description:This study aims to identify genes which help to understand similar underlying mechanism in the response to shade and wounding in Arabidopsis thaliana plants.
