Project description:Flavonoid biosynthesis in grape berry skin is affected by environmental factors such as light and temperature. However, the components of the light-signaling and low-temperature-induced ABA signaling networks related to flavonoid accumulation in grape berry skin have not been fully elucidated. To clarify details of the possible light- and ABA-related signal transduction networks, we performed comprehensive transcriptome analysis using grape berries cultured under different light and temperature conditions. We identified 40 light-inducible genes, 55 low-temperature-inducible genes, and 34 genes induced by light plus low temperature.
Project description:A double cropping system has been commercially adopted in subtropical regions in southern China, where there is abundant sunshine and heat resources. In this viticulture system, the first growing season normally starts as a summer cropping cycle; then, the vine is pruned and forced by hydrogen cyanamide, resulting in a second crop in January of the next year. Due to climate differences between the two growing seasons,the transcriptome varies greatly between summer- and winter- grape berries. In this study, we conducted RNA-seq for two table grape varieties (Vitis vinifera cv. Victoria and V. vinifera cv. Muscat Superior) at three developmental stages (pre-veraison, post-veraison and full maturity).The transcriptome between summer- and winter- grape berries were compared.
Project description:Transcriptome profiling by RNA-seq determined the genome-wide patterns of expression of grape genes in lipopolysaccharide-primed petioles during Pierce’s Disease.
Project description:We performed a comprehensive high-throughput transcript sequencing of ten different grapevine cultivars, which resulted in the first high coverage atlas of the grape berry transcriptome.
Project description:Transcriptome profiling by RNA sequencing determined the genome-wide patterns of expression of grape and N. parvum genes in stem (local) and leaf (distal) tissues during an extensive interaction time course.
Project description:Under iHO conditions, distinctive grape-like organoids emerge. To evaluate the hepatocyte characteristics of grape-like organoids and other organoid forms, grape-like organoids were isolated under a microscope, and RNA-seq was performed.
