Affy_sunyfuel_drought_sunflower-Sunyfuel

ABSTRACT: affy_sunyfuel_drought_sunflower - Drought is the main cause or crop loss around the globe and it is expected to be more so in years to come. Helianthus genus comprises species that are able to grow in harsh environments suffering from severe water shortage. Cultivated H.annuus, i.e. sunflower, is a highly valuable oil crop due to, among other features, its ability to grow under low input conditions. The aim of our project is to unravel the transcriptional regulation underpinning drought tolerance in sunflower, with the ultimate goal of improving crop yield. Ninety six individual pots were arranged in six blocks of 16 plants each, which were sown in individual pots. Each block contained 2 plants of 8 different genotypes, one of which was used as control and the other one as treated plant. P
