Project description:To understand how the qDTY12.1 interacts with other genes within the genome to give better yield under drought; the spikelets transcriptome of DTY12.1 parents (Vandana , Way Rarem) and DTY12.1 NIL (481-B) were compared under control and drought conditions. Drought induced gene expression was studied in the spikelets of the rice plants subjected to severe reproductive stage drought. Seeds of Vandana, Way Rarem, and 481-B were sown into rotovated soil at a rate of 2.0 g m-1 into plots of 3 rows X 3 m. The three genotypes were sown in three replications in a randomized complete block design.
Project description:The severity of impact of drought on crops is contingent on the developmental stage of the plant, with the most sensitive stage being the reproductive stage. Hence, gene expression profiling has been used to understanding drought response and resistance mechanism in rice. Here we present drought transcriptomes of rice in three developmental stages and gain insights into the processes and regulatory mechanisms involved in common and stage specific drought responses. Total RNA was isolated from the rice seedlings, vegetative (V4) and reproductive (R4) tissues of both control and stress treated plants for hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Two independent replicates for seedling and reproductive stages, and three replicates for vegetative stages were generated, for both control and stress samples. For drought treatments, plants were gradually subjected to field drought conditions in order to reach 50% field capacity (FC) by regulating water supply, whereas control plants were maintained at 100% FC.
Project description:To understand how the qDTY12.1 interacts with other genes within the genome to give better physiological adaptations and better yield; the leaves transcriptome of DTY12.1 parents (Vandana , Way Rarem) and DTY12.1 NIL (481-B) were compared under control and drought conditions. Drought induced gene expression was studied in the leaves of the rice plants subjected to severe reproductive stage drought. Seeds of Vandana, Way Rarem, and 481-B were sown into rotovated soil at a rate of 2.0 g m-1 into plots of 3 rows X 3 m. The three genotypes were sown in three replications in a randomized complete block design.
Project description:Global gene expression analysis of AtDREB1A transgenic rice line (TL4) at reproductive stage under drought stress was conducted using microarray to explore the drought stress-responsive transcription pathways. Drought stress was imposed at late vegetative stage till booting of the plants. Flag leaf was collected on 14th day of the drought stress. Drought stress was imposed on T3 plants of two homozygous transgenic rice events of PS2 and NT plants by withholding irrigation for 14 days in the National Phytotron Facility, IARI.

Project description:In order to identify new miRNAs, NAT-siRNAs and possibly abiotic-stress regulated small RNAs in rice, three small RNA libraries were constructed from control rice seedlings and seedlings exposed to drought or salt stress, and then subjected to pyrosequencing.

Project description:Comparative transcriptional profiling of two contrasting rice genotypes,IRAT109 (drought-resistant japonica cultivar) and ZS97 (drought-sensitive indica cultivar), under drought stress during the reproductive stage Four samples with RWC in the range of 94–95% (no stress, D0), 83–88% (slight drought in which leaves were slightly rolled, D1), 74–78% (moderate drought in which about half of each leaf was rolled, D2), and 65–69% (severe drought in which all leaves were completely rolled, D3) were collected for expression profiling analysis using an Affymetrix GeneChip.
