Project description:Boron is an essential micronutrient for plants and is taken up in the form of boric acid (BA). Despite this, a high BA concentration is toxic for the plants, inhibiting root growth and is thus a significant problem in semi-arid areas in the world. In this work, we report the molecular basis for the inhibition of root growth caused by boron. We used microarrays to detail the global gene expression underlying boron toxicity in roots.
Project description:Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) is a leguminous forage widely planted in arid and semi-arid areas. Prolonged drought stress can significantly damage sainfoin growth, resulting in lower yield and quality, and in severe cases, plant mortality. As a result, studying sainfoin's drought response pathways is extremely important. In this work, we compared two sainfoin (DRL, drought-tolerant; DSM, drought-sensitive) in terms of protein regulation.

Project description:The transcriptome signature of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of Ladakhi cattle adapted to high altitude vis a vis Sahiwal cattle adapted to the arid/semi-arid region at mean sea level was established using bovine expression microarray chips. The transcriptome analysis of PBMCs from these cattle types living at two distinct altitudes, resulted in identification of several hundred differentially expressed genes, biological processes, molecular functions and pathways.
