Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)
Description
The inbuilt mechanisms of plant survival have been exploited for improving tolerance to abiotic stresses. We have investigated the subcellular interactions of rice stress-associated proteins (SAPs) using yeast two-hybrid and FRET approaches and found that A20 domain mediates the interaction of OsSAP1 with self, its close homolog OsSAP11, and a rice receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase, OsRLCK253. Such interactions between OsSAP1/11 and with OsRLCK253 occur at nuclear membrane, plasma membrane and in nucleus. Functionally, both OsSAP11 and OsRLCK253 could improve the water-deficit and salt stress tolerance in transgenic Arabidopsis plants via a signaling pathway affecting the expression of several common endogenous genes. The yield in transgenic plants is also protected indicating the agronomic relevance of OsSAP11 and OsRLCK253 in conferring abiotic stress tolerance.

Description
Potassium is one of the essential macronutrients required for plant growth and development. It plays a major role in different physiological processes like cell elongation, stomatal movement, turgor regulation, osmotic adjustment, and signal transduction by acting as a major osmolyte and component of the ionic environment in the cytosol and subcellular organelles.

- Affymetrix Rice Genome Array (rice)
Description
Plants initially undergo a period of vegetative development, in which it produces leaves from shoot apical meristem (SAM) and roots from the root apical meristem. Later in development, the SAM undergoes a change in fate and enters reproductive development called as floral transition, producing flowers and seeds. Our understanding of the molecular and genetic mechanisms that underlie reproductive development in plants has increased tremendously in the past decade, essentially through the work on Arabidopsis. In this study, we have analyzed the spatial and temporal gene expression in various tissues/organs and developmental stages of rice using microarray technology to identify the genes differentially expressed during various stages of reproductive development.

- Affymetrix Cotton Genome Array (cotton)
Description
This study was initiated with the objective of identifying the anther/tapetum specific promoters from cotton floral buds. Cotton is an important commercial crop. Hybrid cotton varieties are developed to obtain improved yield and fiber quality. Most of the hybrid seed production in cotton is carried out by hand emasculation, which requires large amount of manpower, resulting in high cost of hybrid seed. We are developing barnase-barstar based male sterility system, which would be a better alternative for hybrid development. The tapetum specific promoters are main requirement for such a system. The study was thus carried out to identify genes expressed in the anthers.

Description
Traditional rice varieties found in India have many desirable characteristics. Amongst them, their differential responses to abiotic and biotic stresses are of great agricultural importance. Drought or osmotic stress is one of the major abiotic stresses afflicting crop plants in India. Indigenous varieties like Dagad deshi have been found to be drought resistant and, thereby, are being studied in great detail by plant breeders and biotechnologists alike. In this study, we have analyzed the transciptomes of two contrasting cultivars, i.e. Dagad deshi (tolerant) and IR20 (susceptible), under control and stress conditions to elucidate the differences in their responses to drought stress using Affymetrix microarray platform.

Description
Methyl CpG Binding (MBD) proteins are a class of protein that binds with methylated DNA. In the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana there are 13 MBD proteins are there. To understand the gene regulation we performed microarray analysis of mutants of three genes (atmbd4, atmbd6 and atmbd11). Ten day old seedlings of these three mutant were compared with the wild type plants grown in same condition.

Description
Background In flowering plants, the anther is the site of male gametophyte development. Two major events in the development of the male germline are meiosis and the asymmetric division in the male gametophyte that gives rise to the vegetative and generative cells, and the following mitotic division in the generative cell that produces two sperm cells. Anther transcriptomes have been analyzed at progressive stages of development by using microarray and sequence by synthesis technologies to identify genes that regulate anther development. Here we have carried out a comprehensive analysis of rice anther transcriptomes at four distinct stages of development with a focus to identify regulatory components contributing to male meiosis and germline development. Further, these transcriptomes have been compared with transcriptomes of 10 stages of rice vegetative and seed development to identify genes that express specifically during anther development. Results - To understand the molecular processes that lead to male gametophyte development, transcriptome profiling of four stages of anther development in rice [pre-meiotic (PMA), meiotic (MA), anthers at single-celled (SCP) and tri-nucleate pollen (TPA)] was conducted. Around 22,000 genes were found to be expressed in at least one of the anther developmental stages, with the highest number in MA (18,090) and lowest (15,465) in TPA. Comparison of these transcriptome profiles to an in-house generated microarray-based transcriptomics database comprising of 10 stages/tissues of vegetative as well as reproductive development in rice resulted in the identification of1,000 genes that are specifically expressed in anther stages. Of them the expression of 453 genes was found to be specific to TPA, whereas 78 and 184 genes were expressed specifically in MA and SCP. Gene ontology and pathway analysis of specifically expressed genes revealed that transcription factors and protein folding, sorting and degradation pathway genes dominated in MA, whereas in TPA, those coding for cell structure and signal transduction components were in abundance. Interestingly, about 50% of the genes with anther-specific expression have not been annotated so far. Conclusions - These data not only provide the transcriptome constituents of four landmark stages of anther development but also identify genes that express exclusively in these stages and therefore may contribute to specific aspects of anther and/or male gametophyte development in rice. Moreover, these gene sets assist in building a deeper understanding of underlying regulatory networks and in selecting candidates for gene function validation.
