Project description:We describe an application of deep sequencing and de novo assembly of short RNA reads to investigate small interfering (si)RNAs mediated immunity in leaf samples from eight tree taxa naturally occurring in Wytham Woods, Oxfordshire, UK. BLAST search for homologues of contigs in the GenBank identified siRNA populations against a number of RNA viruses and a Ty1-copia retrotransposons in these tree species.
Project description:Human A549 lung epithelial cells were exposed directly at the air-liquid interphase towards combustion aerosols of wood burning. The goal was to compare the responses towards different wood and burning conditions. Beech log woods were burnt in a modern masonry heater, soft wood pellets were burnt in a pellet boiler.

Project description:Moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis (Carrière) J. Houz.), ) is one of the most importantessential economic bamboo species in China. However, the woods quality and yield of bamboo shoots were significantly threatened by diverse environmental conditions. significantly threaten the quality of wood and yield of bamboo shoots. In this study, to explore the molecular mechanism of abiotic stress response, we report the RNA-seq analyses of mosoMoso bamboo treated with drought, salt, SA and ABA at three -time courses. A total of 224.4 Gb clean data were generate in to explore the molecular mechanism of the abiotic stress response. The full-length transcriptome sequencing of these four treatments generated a total of 224.4 Gb data after quality trimming, and approximately 5.83Gban average of 6.615 Gb clean data were per sample was generated in per sample. The comparative analyses of the generated transcriptome data in this study will provide a valuable resource for identifying regulatory genes and potential pathways involved in various abiotic stresses in mosoMoso bamboo.
