Project description:In this study, we used a cross-species network approach to uncover nitrogen (N)-regulated network modules conserved across a model and a crop species. By translating gene network knowledge from the data-rich model Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana, ecotype Columbia-0) to a crop, rice (Oryza sativa spp. japonica (Nipponbare)), we identified evolutionarily conserved N-regulatory modules as targets for translational studies to improve N use efficiency in transgenic plants.
Project description:For identification of genes up-regulated in RCc3:OsNAC6, GOS2:OsNAC6 plants, total RNA (100 μg) was prepared from root tissues of 14-d-old transgenic and non-transgenic rice seedlings (Oryza sativa cv Nipponbare) grown under normal growth conditions.
Project description:For identification of genes up-regulated in RCc3:OsNAC5, GOS2:OsNAC5 plants, total RNA (100 μg) was prepared from root tissues of 14-d-old transgenic and non-transgenic rice seedlings (Oryza sativa cv Nipponbare) grown under normal growth conditions.
Project description:For identification of genes up-regulated in RCc3:OsNAC1, GOS2:OsNAC1 plants, total RNA (100 μg) was prepared from root tissues of 14-d-old transgenic and non-transgenic rice seedlings (Oryza sativa cv Nipponbare) grown under normal growth conditions.
Project description:For identification of genes up-regulated in RCc3:OsNAC10, GOS2:OsNAC10 plants, total RNA (100 μg) was prepared from root and leaf tissues of 14-d-old transgenic and non-transgenic rice seedlings (Oryza sativa cv Nipponbare) grown under normal growth conditions.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of MIT knockdown plants. MIT is a mitochondrial Fe transporter essential for rice growth and development. The goal was to determine the effects of MIT on global rice gene expression.
