This project aims to identify changes in the proteome of maize ovules that precede their abortion in response to water deficit. To take into account variations along development, the proteome was analyzed in ovules collected at different positions along the ear at two stages of ear development. Plan...
Purpose: To study the effects of drought at the transcriptomic level on two different actively dividing maize tissue: the ovaries, and the leaf meristem Methods: The Illumina reads were mapped to the maize B73 reference genome using Tophat followed by transcriptome reconstruction using Cufflinks.
