Project description:The atmosphere CO2 concentration keeps increasing every year. Use the Affymetrix poplar gene chip to confirm the expression changes in key genes in the triploid white poplar due to the influence of elevated CO2 concentrations. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression under normal and elevated CO2 concentrations. Gene expression of triploid white poplar ((P. tomentosa Ã? P. bolleanaï¼?Ã? P. tomentosa) leaves were investigated by using the Affymetrix poplar genome gene chip, after grown in controlled environment chambers under three different CO2 concentrations. Poplar leaves were subjected to normal CO2 concentrations (T0) and elevated CO2 concentrations (T1, 550 ppm and T2, 720 ppm) treatments three months.

Project description:Poplar GeneChip was employed to detect genes expressed during the whole floral developmental process, in order to improve understanding of poplar flower development, since current knowledge on flower development was mainly from model plant Arabidopsis.
Project description:We take the two year old plant for sampling.Use the Affymetrix poplar gene chip to elucidate the gene functions and mechanisms in Populus tomentosa shoot apex and mature xylem. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in shoot apex and mature xylem.
Project description:We take the two year old plant for sampling. Use the Affymetrix poplar gene chip to elucidate the gene functions and mechanisms in Populus tomentosa newly formed developing xylem and lignified xylem. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression in newly formed developing xylem and lignified xylem.
Project description:Poplar GeneChip was employed to detect genes expressed during the whole floral developmental process, in order to improve understanding of poplar flower development, since current knowledge on flower development was mainly from model plant Arabidopsis. Male and female floral buds of Populus tomentosa were selected at successive stages of the whole development process for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to obtain genes contributed to floral development, but not the dynamic expression changes. To that end, equal amount of floral buds RNA per gender from different stages were mixed for the detection of expressed genes.
