Project description:Sorghum is an important cereal crop, which requires large quantities of nitrogen fertilizer for achieving commercial yields. Identification of the genes responsible for low-N tolerance in sorghum will facilitate understanding of the molecular mechanisms of low-N tolerance, and also facilitate the genetic improvement of sorghum through marker-assisted selection or gene transformation. In this study we compared the transcriptomes of root tissues from seven sorghum genotypes having different genetic backgrounds with contrasting low-N tolerance by the RNAseq deep sequencing data. Several genes were found which are common differentially expressed genes between four low-N tolerant sorghum genotypes (San Chi San, China17, KS78 and high-NUE bulk) and three sensitive genotypes (CK60, BTx623 and low-NUE bulk).

Project description:We report transcriptome profiling from three developing stages of middle internode in sweet sorghum. Sequencing of 6 libraries (two replicates from each stage) each stage yielded approximately 80 million reads.
Project description:We report transcriptome profiling of middle internode tissues from four development stages and three soil moisture readings representing progressive drought stress in sweet sorghum. Sequencing of 14 libraries (two biological replicates for each stage). Each replicate yielded an average of 86 million reads per sample for developmental stages and drought stressed samples yielded an average of 74 million reads per sample .

Project description:We selected 11 tissues from sorghum reference genome line BTX623 for comparative study between Maize and sorghum. These 11 tissues were selected at different development stages at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory upland farm, RNA were extracted, library was made and sequenced on HiSeq2500 PE125 platform at Woodbury Genome Center.
Project description:We report transcriptome profiling from three developing stages of anthers in sorghum. Sequencing of nine libraries (three replicates from each stage) yielded >1.12 billion paired-end reads. A total of 31871 known genes expressed in all three replicates of at least one anther stage.
Project description:Salt stress has become one of the main abiotic stress factors restricting agricultural production worldwide. Sweet sorghum is an important salt and drought tolerant feed and energy crop. Its salt tolerance mechanism has not been widely studied. With the development of transcriptome sequencing technology, it is possible to study the molecular mechanism of sweet sorghum salt tolerance. The purpose of this study was to further reveal the potential salt-tolerant molecular mechanisms of sweet sorghum through high-throughput sequencing analysis of the transcriptome. Finally, through high-throughput sequencing, we read approximately 54.4G of raw base and 53.7G of clean base in total, and used FastQC to assign a quality score (Q) to each base in the read using a similar phred algorithm, Analysis shows that the data is highly credible. We conclude that RNA-based transcriptome characterization will accelerate the study of genetics and molecular biology of sweet sorghum salt tolerance mechanisms and provide a framework for this.
