Project description:To obtain genes expression in different parts of 84k poplar stems, transcriptome sequencing was performed using Illumina Novaseq 6000 second-generation sequencing platform from Shanghai BIOZERON Co. Ltd (www.biozeron.com). Selecte three stem segments of plants REPEAT 1, 2 and 3 with good and similar growth to use: 2nd-3rd internodes (poplar stem top: PST1, PST2, PST3); 9th-10th internodes (poplar stem middle: PSM1, PSM2, PSM3); 14th-15th internodes (poplar stem bottom: PSB1, PSB2, PSB3). [Or the three repeating organisms are also called poplar A, B, C. From top to bottom, the three parts of the stem are also called stem 1, 2, 3.]
Project description:Young poplar stems show a preponderantly primary growth in the top internodes and differential cambium activity in the basal internodes after inclination with some tension wood formed after 45 min. This study was conducted in order to characterize the early changes in gene expression during early stages of the gravitropic response in the poplar. Hybridizations were performed to compare gravistimulated poplar stems (basal region) after 45 min of inclination and untreated control stems. Two biological replicates were done. Two hybridizations with a dye swap for each tree pair were done, making a total of four hybridizations.

Project description:Here we applied a novel approach to isolate nuclei from complex plant tissues (https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0251149), to dissect the transcriptome profiling of the hybrid poplar (Populus tremula × alba) vegetative shoot apex at single-cell resolution.
Project description:gravitropic stimulation / isotropic light-Characterization of early molecular events of woody stem gravitropism independently of phototropic responses
Project description:Microarray technology was used to assess transcriptome changes in poplar (Populus alba L.) under a realistic simulation of increased UV-B radiation. Plants were UV-Bbe (UV-B biologically effective radiation) supplemented with a dose of 6 kJ/m2/day for 12 hours per day and allowed to recover during the night. Poplar plants were UV-B treated using a refined controlled environment able to guarantee a realistic simulation of natural conditions, especially for light parameters such as presence of background UV-B radiation for control plants and balanced PAR/UV-A/UV-B ratio. A time course experiment was planned to look both at the rapid and delayed response of poplar to UVB; two time points after 3 h (T3h) and 30 h (6th hour of the third day of treatment, T30h) were considered. 4 independent biological replicates were analysed for each time point. Competitive hybridisations were carried out using the PICME 28K microarray. Keywords: Time course experiment, stress response
Project description:12plex_poplar_2012-01 - gravitropic stimulation / isotropic light - The experiments were designed to identify genes responding to the gravitropic stimulus in the xylem of poplar stem independently of phototropic responses. - young poplar trees were staked one week before use. For the experiment, the plants were placed in an isotropic light environment and were tited at 35° during 30 min. Control plants were kept straight in the isotropic light device. Xylem samples were collected from the upper and lower face of the stems. 4 biological replicates were made (4 controls and 4 tilted plants). RNA was extracted from each xylem sample. cDNA was synthetized. The discovery of genes whose expression is modulated by tilting was performed by a microarray approach.

Biological replicates: 4 UVB suplemented plants, 4 control plants, two time points, one replicate per array. Dye swap between replicates.
