Project description:Large scale transcriptomics study to establish gene expression in leaf tissue of W22 inbred line in Zea Mays. RNA was extracted from leaf tissue when the plants were at V6. Sequencing library was produced following the protocol mentioned in the following publication PMID:22039485
Project description:We report the application of whole transcriptome sequencing technology for high-throughput profiling of coding and non-coding RNAs associated with Spodoptera frugiperda feeding in Zea mays. 4,366 mRNAs and 233 lncRNAs were differentially expressed during Spodoptera frugiperda feeding in Zea mays. Our data contribute to the understanding of the function of coding and non-coding RNAs in the regulation of plant-insect interactions.
Project description:In the present study we have assessed, by transcriptional profiling, the systemic defense response of Zea mays plants to the ear rotting pathogen Fusarium verticilioides induced by the beneficial fungus Trichoderma atroviride
Project description:The differentiation of specialized feeding sites in Zea mays root cells in response to nematode infestation involves substantial cellular reprogramming of host cells that is not well characterized at the molecular level. Expression data was generated from Zea mays root cells undergoing giant cell formation due to nematode infestation and from non-infested control root cells. Cells were laser captured 14 and 21 days after infestation.
