Project description:We report an small RNA sequencing (sRNA-seq) approach to identify host sRNAs involved in the nitrogen fixing symbiosis between Mesoamerican Phaseolus vulgaris and Rhizobium etli strains with different degrees in nodulation efficiency. This approach identified conserved and known microRNAs (miRNAs) differentially accumulated in Mesoamerican P. vulgaris roots in response to a highly efficient strain, to a less efficient one or to both strains.
Project description:Purpose: The objective of this study is to reveal the potential effects of CuO nanoparicles (NPs) on Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough (D. vulgaris) via genome-wide RNA sequencing Methods: RNA was harvested from D. vulgaris cultures in the presence and absence of CuO NPs (0, 1, 50, 250 mg CuO NPs/L) 8 h after cultivation.
