Project description:Purified meiocytes from Col, Bur and taf4b Arabidopsis thaliana plants were extracted as previously described (Walker at al, 2018 Nat. Genet.), and cDNA used to produce libraries.
Project description:This study investigates extent and functional significance of alternative splicing in Arabidopsis thaliana defense against the bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato (Pst). We have provided a detailed characterization of the Arabidopsis thaliana transcriptional response to Pseudomonas syringae infection in both susceptible and resistant hosts. We carried out two independent inoculation experiments (biological replicates) for each treatment. Col-0 is susceptible to virulent Pst DC3000 but has a functional RPS4 resistance gene effective against DC3000 expressing AvrRps4
Project description:The goal of this project is to compare the primary metabolite profile in different tissue types of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Specifically, plants were grown hydroponically under the long-day (16hr light/day) condition at 21C. Tissue samples, including leaves, inflorescences, and roots were harvest 4 1/2 weeks post sowing. Untargeted primary metabolites profiling was carried out using GCTOF.
