Project description:Global gene expression pattern of different poplar tissue types were determined using a Nimblegen microarray based on JGI v1.1 gene models. All tissue except reproductive tissue were obtained from the same clone used for the poplar genome sequencing project (Populus trichocarpa Nisqually-1). Reproductive tissue were from wild Populus trichocarpa trees.
Project description:Global gene expression pattern of phloem and xylem tissue were determined using a Nimblegen microarray based on JGI v1.1 gene models. Xylem tissue from both Populus trichocarpa Nisqually-1 and Populus tremula X Populus alba hybrid were used in the study.
