Project name: Flowering time and inflorescence architecture are regulated by FRUITFULL-like genes in tomato

Description: Null mutations of tomato FRUITFULL-like genes FUL1, FUL2, MBP10, MBP20 caused delayed flowering and branched inflorescence, so we sequenced mRNA from vegetative meristems (VM), transition meristems (TM), floral meristems (FM), and FM of the first sympodial shoot of tomato mutant ful1/ful2/mbp10/mbp20 (slful) as well as the wild type Moneyberg (WT) to see genome-wide expression changes affected by the mutations.Overall design: Meristems at the same developmental stages were collected from many plants of both mutants and wild types and then pooled together for mRNA extractions and then sequencing library construction. Three biological replicates were analyzed for each stage.

Data type: Transcriptome or Gene expression

Sample scope: Multiisolate

Relevance: Agricultural
