Expression profiling of cotton (Gossypium barbadense L. Pima S7) fiber transcriptome during the development

ABSTRACT: To gain novel insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying Pima cotton fiber quality, expression profiling of the Pima fiber transcriptome was performed as a function of development. The profiling was performed at 6 developmental time points: 8, 11, 14, 17, 21, and 24dpa. The expression profiling using long oligonucleotide microarray showed dynamic changes to the fiber transcriptome that correlate to morphogenesis, and biological cellular processes. Differentially expressed genes were identified by being differentially regulated at various stages of fiber development, and they were used to develop stage-specific regulation patterns that correlate the dynamics of gene expression to fiber morphogenesis.
