Project description:Malting is seed germination under strictly controlled environmental conditions. Malting quality is a complex phenotype that combines a large number of interrelated components, each of which shows complex inheritance. Currently, only a few genes involved in determining malting quality have been characterized. This study combined transcript profiling with phenotypic correlations to identify candidate genes for malting quality. We used the Barley1 GeneChip® array to identify differentially expressed genes in four malting stages relative to dry seed in the barley variety Morex, and to identify differentially expressed genes among four barley varieties. Keywords: time course and genotype differences
Project description:The present study aimed to establish an early model of the malting barley transcriptome, which describes the expression of genes and their ontologies, identify the period during malting with the largest dynamic shift in gene expression for future investigation, and to determine the expression patterns of all starch degrading enzyme genes relevant to the malting and brewing industry. Large dynamic increases in gene expression occurred early in malting with differential expressed genes enriched for cell wall and starch hydrolasesamongst many malting related categories. Twenty-five of forty starch degrading enzyme genes were differentially expressed in the malting barley transcriptome including eleven α-amylase genes, six β-amylase genes, three α-glucosidase genes, and all five starch debranching enzyme genes. Four new or novel α-amylase genes, one β-amylase gene (Bmy3), three α-glucosidase genes, and two isoamylase genes had appreciable expression that requires further exploration into their potential relevance to the malting and brewing industry.
Project description:Transcriptome comparison of the winter malting barley '88Ab536' with the spring malting variety 'Morex' at two time points of the malting process: 'out of steeping' and '3 days of germination'. Three replicates of each genotype and time point were accomplished. ****[PLEXdb(http://www.plexdb.org) has submitted this series at GEO on behalf of the original contributor, Maria Munoz-Amatriain.

Malting quality is a complex phenotype that combines a large number of interrelated components, each of which shows complex inheritance.

This study combined transcript profiling with phenotypic correlations to identify candidate genes for malting quality. We used the Barley1 GeneChip® array to identify differentially expressed genes in four malting stages relative to dry seed in the barley variety Morex, and to identify differentially expressed genes among four barley varieties. Experiment Overall Design: Four malting barley cultivars were micromalted: Morex and Legacy (6-row), Merit and Harrington (2-row). Two to three batches of micromalting (biological replications) were performed. For each micromalting experiment, 20 g samples were collected for Morex at four stages: steeping, 24 h germination (day 1), 93 h germination (day 4), and finished malt after kilning was completed. Ungerminated, dry seed of Morex was used as reference sample. In another experiment, seeds of Legacy, Harrington, and Merit were micromalted and 20 g samples were collected for each variety during day 1 and day 4 germination stages. Expression profiles were compared among the four cultivars separately for day 1 and day 4.
Project description:This dataset contains Xdrop followed by oxford nanopore long read sequencing performed in target tRNA gene deletion clones in HAP1 (t72) and HepG2 (t15). By applying de novo assembly based approach to Xdrop-LRS data, we identified Cas9-induced on-target genomic alteration.

Project description:Transgenic plants carrying an estradiol-inducible ROS1-YFP construct (XVE:ROS1-YFP) were subjected to long-read sequencing (Oxford Nanopore Technologies) to assess the global impacts of ROS1 activity on the methylome of Arabidopsis thaliana (ecotype Col-0).
