Transcription profiling of flax (Linum usitatissimum) developmental series


ABSTRACT: Three 2cm segments were excised from different parts (TOP, MID, BOT) along the vertical axis of a 4 week old (25cm) stem of flax (L. usitatissimum) were compared using a cDNA amplicon array. Each segment represented a different developmental stage, especially in relation to bast fibre differentiation (i.e. TOP= elongation, MID=transition, BOT= thickening). Only the cDNAs that showed the highest differential expression were sequenced.

To better understand the molecular processes associated with the development of the unusually long (> 30 mm) and strong bast fibre cells within the phloem of flax stems, we conducted a gene discovery experiment to identify transcripts enriched in fibre-bearing tissues, with the intention that these transcripts would serve as future targets for crop improvement and research in phloem development and cell wall deposition. We produced a library of 9,600 cDNA clones from the peels of flax stems, and  ...[more]
