Project description:Chinese cordyceps is of particular interest for its confined distribution, mysterious lifecycle, ecological importance and developmental biology. The large scale artificial cultivation of this fungus has been succeeded in China until recently but with low efficiency and high cost being ascribed to too much unsolved biological issues, such as gene expression during development and the sexuality reproduction. The success of artificial cultivation provides the convenient for sampling during the different development stages.
Project description:Using the HiSeqTM 2000 sequencing platform, the anther transcriptome of photo thermo sensitive genic male sterile lines (PTGMS) rice Y58S and P64S (Peiâai 64S) were analyzed at the fertility sensitive stage under cold stress.These datas would be most beneficial for further studies investigating the molecular mechanisms of rice responses to cold stress.
Project description:In order to shed light on the DNA methylation pathway mediating Pi starvation-induced changes in DNA methylation, the phosphate starvation experiment was repeated using an RNAi line that knocks DCL3a, a key factor involved in the canonical RdDM pathway.
Project description:We performed RNA-Seq of P. trichocarpa calluses that were firstly induced from roots. Then the total RNAs were isolated from the control and salt-stressed calluses (200 mM NaCl for 6, 12, 24, and 48 h) using a CTAB procedure. Note: All samples in SRA were assigned the same sample accession (SRS938530). This is incorrect as there are different samples, hence âSource Nameâ was replaced with new values. Comment[ENA_SAMPLE] contains the original SRA sample accessions.
Project description:Phosphate (Pi) deficiency alters root hair length and frequency as a means of increasing the absorptive surface area of roots. Three partly redundant single R3 MYB proteins, CAPRICE (CPC), ENHANCER OF TRY AND CPC1 (ETC1) and TRIPTYCHON (TRY), positively regulate the root hair cell fate by participating in a lateral inhibition mechanism. To identify putative targets and processes that are controlled by these three transcription factors (TFs), we conducted transcriptional profiling of roots from Arabidopsis thaliana wild-type plants, and cpc, etc1 and try mutants grown under Pi-replete and Pi-deficient conditions using RNA-seq.
Project description:Genome-wide analysis of skin color-related lncRNA and mRNA expression in Koi carp, Cyprinus carpio L. LncRNAs information linked to fish skin color regulation is over-limited. In this study, Illumina sequencing and bioinformatics were primarily conducted on black, white and red skin colors of Koi carp. A total of 590,415,050 clean reads, 446,614 putative transcripts, 4,252 known and 72,907 novel lncRNAs were simultaneously obtained, respectively. Out of these genes, 92 significant differentially expressed lncRNAs and 722 mRNAs were excavated. Ccr_lnc5622441, Ccr_lnc765201 were found up-regulated in black and red skins; Ccr_lnc14074601 were up-regulated in white skin; and premelanosome proteins a (Pmela), tyrosinase (Tyr) were up-regulated in black skin, etc. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) further validated 12 differentially expressed genes were consistent with RNA-seq. Moreover, 70 lncRNAs on 107 target mRNAs in cis and 79 lncRNAs on 41,625 target mRNAs in trans were investigated, the networks revealed one lncRNAs can connected with numerous mRNAs, vice versa. These findings broadened the lncRNAs landscape of skin colors and provided new insights into the mechanisms underlying lncRNAs mediated pigmentation and differentiation in Koi carp.
