Gene Expression Profiling of the Shoot Meristematic Tissues in Woodland Strawberry Fragaria vesca.

ABSTRACT: Fragaria vesca, a wild diploid strawberry, has recently emerged as a model for the cultivated strawberry and other members of the Rosaceae. Differentiation and maintenance of meristems largely determines plant architecture, flower development and ultimately fruit yield. However, in strawberry, our knowledge of molecular regulation of meristems in different developmental context is limited. In this study, we hand dissected three types of tissues than contain meristematic tissues corresponding to shoot apical meristem (SAM), flower meristem (FM), and receptacle meristem (REM), in F. vesca for RNA-seq analyses. A total of 3,009 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified through pairwise comparisons. These DEGs were grouped into nine clusters with dynamic and distinct
