Project description:The goal is to look at changes in the pattern of expression of the xylem transcriptome through the growth season in two spruces (Picea glauca and Picea abies).
Project description:The goal of this experiment is to assess tissue preferential transcript accumulation and fold difference between two tissues that support secondary vascular growth in three spruces: Picea glauca, Picea sitchensis and Picea mariana. Tissues compared are secondary xylem (wood forming tissue located on the internal side of the cambial meristem) and phelloderm (composite sample of the phloem and phelloderm tissues located on the outer side of the cambial meristem). One-color comparison of 3 spruce species in 2 tissue types: xylem and phelloderm. 20 biological repetitions per tissue for Picea glauca and 15 for Picea sitchensis and Picea mariana, for a total of 100 slides.

Project description:The goal is to look at changes in the pattern of expression of the xylem transcriptome through the growth season in two spruces (Picea glauca and Picea abies). One-color comparison of active xylem collected in June, July, August and September, in two spruce species. Six biological repetitions per time point and specie, for a total of 48 slides.
Project description:The brown rot fungus, Fomitopsis pinicola strain FP-58527, was cultivated in media containing ground Populus tremuloides, Pinus taeda or Picea glauca wood as sole carbon source. Mass spectrometry analyses identified proteins likely involved in the degradation of lignocellulose. Patterns of enzymes detected varied with substrate.
