Project description:Transcriptional changes in greenhouse-grown plants of tomato varieties Monaymaker and Mogeor infected with Pyrenochaeta lycopersici compared to uninfected control plants. The objective of the the study was to give an insight into the establishment of compatible and incompatible interactions between tomato and the pathogen using susceptible (Moneymaker) and resistant (Mogeor) varieties of tomato. ****[PLEXdb(http://www.plexdb.org) has submitted this series at GEO on behalf of the original contributor, Justyna Anna Milc.

Project description:Pyrenochaeta lycopersici causes corky root disease of tomato. A comparative RNA-Seq-based transcriptome analysis was conducted at 96 hpi (hours post infection) on two tomato cultivars: the resistant Mogeor and its genetic background, susceptible Moneymaker to investigate the differences in their transcripts and identify the molecular bases of this plant-pathogen interaction and gain hints over resistance mechanisms.
Project description:Using Affymetrix GeneChips, we analyzed expression profiles of SP cells from EOM and TA. 348 differentially expressed transcripts defined the EOM-SP transcriptome: 229 upregulated in EOM-SP and 119 in TA-SP. Keywords: Expression Profiling
