Project description:To gain further insights into a larger number of processes potentially altered by high nickel (Ni), we performed a transcriptional profiling of whole roots of Arabidopsis thaliana accession Columbia-0 (Col-0) exposed to 100 µM nickel, a concentration that induces slight chlorosis and intermediate inhibition of root and shoot growth.
Project description:The goal of this study was to produce a reference transcriptome for the nickel hyperaccumulator Leucocroton havanensis endemic from Cuba and use this transcriptome as a reference to identify genes responding to the presence or the absence of nickel in both roots and shoots of this species
Project description:Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis is a predominant relationship between plant and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. To idendify arbuscular mycorrhiza responsive miRNAs, small RNA libraries were constructed in tomato roots colonized with Rhizophagus irregularis and without Rhizophagus irregularis. We identify miRNAs in tomato roots and provide a new profile of tomato miRNAs. And we found that some miRNAs were responsive to arbuscular mycorrhiza by comparing miRNAs in treatment with that in control. Examination of arbuscular mycorrhiza responsive miRNAs in tomato through high-throughput small RNA sequencing of roots with Rhizophagus irregularis and that without Rhizophagus irregularis

Project description:RNA sequencing was performed on tomato hairy root lines transformed with a GUS overexpression construct, 24 h after mock and jasmonate (JA) treatment. This set-up allowed us to map the gene targets of JA in tomato hairy roots after 24h.
