Project name: Zea mays

Description: qPCR gene expression profiling of Yellow stripe 1 (ys1) and ys3 mutants. ys1 and ys3 are recessive mutants of maize (Zea mays L.) that result in symptoms typical of Fe deficiency, i.e., interveinal chlorosis of the leaves. The objective of the present work was to identify the genes involved in the ys1 and ys3 phenotypes, so as to extend our understanding of Fe homeostasis in maize.Overall design: Root or shoot of WT vs. ys1 or ys3 mutants under Fe sufficient or Fe deficient conditions respectively.

Data type: Transcriptome or Gene expression

Sample scope: Multiisolate

Relevance: Agricultural
