Project description:The goal of this study is to decipher the effect of the tomato lc and fas mutation on gene expression during floral development in tomato. The 3'Tag RNA libraries were sequenced on a Illumina HiSeq2500 at Genomic Resources Core Facility at Weill Cornell Medical College for 100 bp single–end sequencing. Total raw reads for each sample ranged between 5 to 10 million per sample.
Project description:In this study, we explored the metabolome and transcriptome of the ripe fruit in nine landrace accessions representing the seven genetic groups and compared them to the mature fruit of the wild progenitor S. pimpinellifolium. The goal is to shed light in understanding the factors responsible for acquiring tomato fruit quality (taste and flavour) at molecular level during the domestication process.
Project description:The goal of this study is to decipher the effect of the lc and fas mutations on gene expression during floral development in tomato as well as determining the effect of strongly downregulating tomato CLV3 using the RNAi strategy. The strand-specific RNA libraries were sequenced through Illumina HiSeq2000 at Genomic Resources Core Facility at Weill Cornell Medical College for 50 bp single–end sequencing. Total raw reads for each sample ranged between 20-30 millions.
