Project description:Leaf explants of the superembryogenic Medicago truncatula line 2HA were treated with auxin (1-naphthaleneacetic acid) for one week to induce the formation of roots (Imin et al J Exp Bot 58:439-451). Gene expression in the leaves and the NAA treated tissue cultures was compared to identify transcripts expressed during the commitment to root formation in tissue culture. We have used the Affymetrix Medicago Genome Array GeneChip to compared gene expression in Medicago truncatula leaves and leaf explants that have been cultured for one week on NAA, to identify genes expressed during the commitment to root formation in tissue culture. Keywords: Cell type comparison

Experiment Overall Design: Medicago truncatula 2HA leaves and leaf explants treated with NAA for one week were collected; total RNA was extracted and used for hybridization to Affymetrix arrays
Project description:The Medicago truncatula line 2HA has a 500-fold greater capacity to regenerate plants in culture by somatic embryogenesis than wild-type Jemalong. We have compared transcriptomes of tissue cultures from leaf explants of these two lines. We have used the Affymetrix Medicago Genome Array GeneChip to compare leaf explants of Medicago truncatula Jemalong and the superembryogenic line 2HA after two weeks of tissue culture on 10 µM 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and 4 µM 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) (P4 10:4) Keywords: Genotype comparison
Project description:Publication title: Pseudonodule formation by wild type and symbiotic mutant Medicago truncatula in response to auxin transport inhibitors This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE27991: Expression data of Medicago truncatula Jemalong A17 roots treated with auxin transport inhibitors GSE28171: Expression data of Medicago truncatula Jemalong A17 roots treated with S. meliloti exoA mutant or auxin transport inhibitors GSE28172: Expression data of Medicago truncatula skl1-1 roots treated with S. meliloti wild-type or auxin transport inhibitors GSE28173: Genes differentially expressed in wild-type Medicago truncatula plants during nodulation Refer to individual Series
Project description:For transcript analysis of aluminum tolerance responses in Medicago truncatula (A17) we compared transcripts from 2.5 µM Al-treated and control (-Al) root tips corresponding to 12 h after Al treatment. Keywords: One time point and one genotype
Project description:For transcript analysis of aluminum tolerance responses in Medicago truncatula we compared transcripts from 2.5 µM Al-treated and control (-Al) root tips corresponding to 12 and 48 h after Al treatment in Al-tolerant (T32) and Al-sensitive (S70) lines. Keywords: 2 time points and 2 lines
Project description:Rhizobium and allied bacteria form symbiotic nitrogen-fixing nodules on legume roots. Plant hormones appear to play a role in nodule formation. We treated Medicago truncatula roots with auxin transport inhibitors (ATIs) N-(1-naphthyl)phthalamic acid (NPA) and 2,3,5-triiodobenzoic acid (TIBA) to induce the formation of pseudonodules. We compared the transcriptional responses of M. truncatula roots treated with ATIs to roots inoculated with Sinorhizobium meliloti. The transcriptional response of M. truncatula roots 1 and 7 days after ATI treatment were opposite to roots treated with S. meliloti.
Project description:We used laser-capture microdissection (LCM) to isolate specific cells from the Medicago truncatula nodule meristem (M), the distal infection (DIZ), the proximal infection zone (PIZ), infected cells (IC) and uninfected cells (UIC) from the fixation zone. Based on Medicago GeneChips, we identified the cell- and tissue-specific programm of gene expression in Medicago truncatula root nodules.
