Project description:The experiment was performed in a commercial sweet cherry (cv. Tsolakeika, Prunus avium L.) orchard in North Greece (Edessa) during 2017 growing season. The orchard contained 10-years old trees, planted at 5x5 m spacing between rows and along the row, grafted onto Mahaleb cherry (Prunus mahaleb L.) rootstock, trained in open vase and subjected to standard cultural practices. Three foliar sprays (0.5% or 35 mM CaCl2) were performed at 15, 27 and 37 days after full blossom (DAFB). Cherry fruits (exocarp plus mesocarp tissues) were sampled in two developmental stages, namely at full red color (44 DAFB, S4 stage) and at commercial harvest (55 DAFB, S5 stage). Three biological replicates of 20-fruit sub-lots in control and Ca-treated fruits were frozen in liquid nitrogen, grinding in fine powder and stored at -80 ⁰C for proteomic processing.
Project description:We have sequenced a wild Prunus mume and constructed a reference sequence for this genome. In order to improve quality of gene models, RNA samples of five tissues (bud, leaf, root, stem, fruit) were extracted from the Prunus mume. To investigate tissue specific expression using the reference genome assembly and annotated genes, we extracted RNA samples of different tissues and conducted transcriptome sequencing and DEG analysis. Five RNA pools were created corresponding to different tissues of the Prunus mume.

Project description:Primary objectives: The primary objective is to investigate circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) via deep sequencing for mutation detection and by whole genome sequencing for copy number analyses before start (baseline) with regorafenib and at defined time points during administration of regorafenib for treatment efficacy in colorectal cancer patients in terms of overall survival (OS).

Project description:We analysed the DNA methylation and transcription levels of transposable elements and genes in leaves of Prunus persica and Prunus dulcis and in their F1 hybrid using high-throughput sequencing tecnhologies. We can conclude that the merging of the two parental genomes in the P. persica x P. dulcis hybrid does not result in a “genomic shock” with significant changes in the DNA methylation or in the transcription.
