Project Title

  • Novel drought-responsive regulatory coding and non-coding transcripts from Oryza Sativa L.

The Background of This Project

  • Drought-stress can cause major economic loss and is a serious issue to address in agriculture. Defining the molecular pathways in how a plant responds to droughtstress may prove valuable in developing new drought-resistant plants. In this study, the researchers identified several novel drought-responsive regulatory coding and noncoding transcripts in rice, Oryza sativa L., using the next generation sequencing (NGS) technique and bioinformatics analyses.

Plant Culture & Treatment

  • Rice plants, O.sativa L. Nipponbare, were acquired from the Rural Development Administration of Korea (RDA). The rice plants were cultured in Yoshida solution at pH 5.8 and maintained in a temperaturecontrolled culture room at 29 �C under 16 h/8 h light/dark conditions. Rice plants at the three-leaf stage were subjected to drought-stress for 1 and 6 h by removal of the culture solution. Untreated plants were used as control. After treatment, entire plants were immediately transferred into liquid nitrogen.
