Diurnal gene expression in Populus wild type and lhy RNAi line 10

ABSTRACT: Previous studies have shown that a considerable proportion of the Arabidopsis genome cycles under circadian and/or diurnal conditions (Edwards et al., 2006 PMID: 16473970, Blaesing et al., 2005 PMID 16299223). It is likely that the correct phasing of gene expression plays an important role in improving the growth of the model plant (Dodd et al., 2005 PMID: 16040710). A key question is whether similar regulation is occurring in other higher plant species. In this study we measure the diurnal expression pattern of genes in the T89 clone of the hybrid aspen (Populus tremula L. x P. tremuloides Michx.) using the Affymetrix Poplar array. Samples (leaf blades) were taken at 4h intervals over the course of 2 diurnal cycles (18h Light: 6h Dark). Time-points were labelled relative to dawn (time 0)
