Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plants overexpressing cryptochrome 2 reveals modified expression of chloroplast genome

ABSTRACT: In this study we analyzed the effects of CRY2 over-expression on chloroplast genome transcription of tomato, by developing and using a tiling array. This array containing about 90,000 overlapping probes (5-nt resolution) is a versatile tool for global functional studies of tomato cp genome. We profiled transcription in leaves of wild-type (WT) and CRY2-overexpressing (CRY2-OX) plants grown in a diurnal cycle, to generate a comprehensive map of plastid transcription and to monitor potential specific modulations of chloroplast transcriptome induced by the overexpression of CRY2.
