Project name: Glycine max

Description: We report the genome-wide transcriptome of soybean seeds across several stages of seed development and the entire life cycle using Illumina high-throughput sequencing technology. Specifically, we profiled whole seeds containing globular-stage, heart-stage, cotyledon-stage, early maturation-stage, mid-maturation-stage, and late-maturation-stage embryos. We also profiled dry soybean seeds, and vegetative and reproductive tissues including leaves, roots, stems, seedlings, and floral buds.Overall design: IIllumina sequencing of transcripts from whole seeds at five stages of seed development (globular, heart, cotyledon, early-maturation, mid-maturation, late-maturation, dry), and vegetative (leaves, roots, stems, seedlings) and reproductive (floral buds) tissues.
