Study overview

What the record says

This study examined tissue-specific early transcriptional responses upon reorientation in wild type and starchless pgm-1 mutant seedlings of Arabidopsis. Seedlings were grown in vertical Petri dishes for four days. Treatment samples were reoriented 90 degrees for ten minutes while control plants remained vertical. All seedlings were flash frozen in liquid nitrogen and RNA was extracted from root tips, mature root, hypocotyl, and cotyledon fractions of the seedlings. RNA was sequenced via NovaSeq.
