Project description:We microdissected each compartment from 8-micron paraffin sections using the Leica LMD6000 system to identify all genes active in different compartments of a soybean seed containing a cotyledon-stage embryo. Experiment Overall Design: cotyledon-stage seed compartments were isolated using the Leica LMD6000 system. Total RNA was amplified and hybridized with Affymetrix Soybean Genome Arrays.
Project description:We collected bending-cotyledon seed compartments from 7 micron paraffin sections using the Leica LMD6000 system in order to identify the mRNAs present in different compartments from seeds containing bending cotyledon stage embryos. For the purposes of this study we captured 6 compartments: embryo proper, mycropylar endosperm, cellularized peripherial endosperm, chalazal endosperm, chalazal seed coat and seed coat, in addition to serial sections encompasing the entire bending-cotyledon stage seed.
Project description:The nuclei of Glycine max from different tissues were collected. The samples were: soybean seed mid-maturation stage (10mm), seed late cotyledon stage (5mm), seed early cotyledon stage (3mm), seed heart stage (1mm), soybean green pods without seeds (stage), soybean flower bud (early flowering stage), soybean shoot apical meristem (stage), soybean trifoliate leaf (R5 stage), and soybean true leave (stage). The library construction was performed applying 10 Genomics technology.
Project description:We investigated soybean seed development because (1) soybean seeds are a major source of food and fuel, (2) soybean seeds have been an excellent system for studying the basic processes controlling seed development for over three decades, and (3) new soybean genomic resources, including the sequence of the soybean genome and the gene expression profiles for all seed compartments, tissues, and cell types, can be used to gain new insights into the regulatory processes required for seed differentiation. We sequenced messenger RNA populations of specific soybean seed compartments, which will provide new insights into gene expression that are important for M-bM-^@M-^\making a soybean seed.M-bM-^@M-^] Ten compartments of the Cotyledon stage of the soybean seeds were analyzed. Three biological replicates were collected for each compartment.
