Project description:Using 21K spruce microarray (that contains 21.8 thousand unique transcripts) we performed analysis of the transcriptome response of lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) inoculated with the mountain pine beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) vectored fungal pathogen Grosmannia clavigera or treated with wounding. This microarray analysis revealed large transcriptome reorganization with close to 2000 transcripts (10% of the studied transcriptome) differentially expressed within two weeks of treatment, with the wounding response affecting close to 2% of the lodgepole pine transcriptome.
Project description:To better understand the molecular bases of resin production, a major source of terpenes for industry, the transcriptome of adult Pinus elliottii var. elliottii (slash pine) trees under field commercial resinosis was obtained.
Project description:The transcriptome of needles from plants propagated by cuttings and cultured in the same condictions at SERIDAâs greenhouse at Villaviciosa (Asturias, Spain) were analyzed. The cuttings are from two different provenances of Pinus pinaster; Leiria (Portugal) and Tamrabta (Morocco). Their transcriptomes were analyzed using one color microarrays.
