Microarray analysis of strain EG4 vs. Nipponbare

ABSTRACT: In the japonica rice strain Gimbozu EG4, the DNA transposon mPing is actively transposing to attain over 1,000 copies, whereas in Nipponbare, where this element is virtually silent and has only 50 copies. To analyze the impact of such a massive amplification of transposable element on gene regulation, we performed the rice 44k oligo microarray analysis. Total RNA was extracted from 7-day-old seedlings of EG4 and Nipponbare plants, grown in a greenhouse at at 26˚C and subjected to 44k oligo-DNA microarray with 4 biological replicates.
