Project name: Genome-Wide analysis of gene expression responses to waterlogging stress in roots of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)

Description: Waterlogging is a major abiotic stress causing oxygen depletion and carbon dioxide accumulation in the rhizosphere. Barley is more susceptible to waterlogging stress than other cereals. To gain a better understanding of the effect of waterlogging stress in barley, we carried out a genome-wide gene expression analysis in roots of Yerong and Deder2 barley genotypes under waterlogging and control (well-watered) conditions by RNA-Sequencing, using Illumina HiSeq™ 4000 platform.Overall design: Two-week-old Yerong and Deder2 seedlings were exposed to waterlogging treatment. Root tissue samples were collected at the time-points 0 and 72 h of treatment for Yerong from both treated and control plants, and at the points 0, 72, and 120 h of treatment for Deder2 from both treated and control plants. Total RNA was prepared and used for the RNA-seq analysis. Four independent biological replicates were used for each plant sample.
