Global eQTL mapping reveals the complex genetic architecture of transcript-level variation in Arabidopsis.
The genetic architecture of transcript-level variation is largely unknown. The genetic determinants of transcript-level variation were characterized in a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population (n = 211) of Arabidopsis thaliana using whole-genome microarray analysis and expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) mapping of transcript levels as expression traits (e-traits). Genetic control of tr...
متن کاملTranscript profiling in Arabidopsis reveals complex responses to global inhibition of DNA methylation and histone deacetylation.
Blocking histone deacetylation with trichostatin A (TSA) or blocking cytosine methylation using 5-aza-2'-deoxycytosine (aza-dC) can derepress silenced genes in multicellular eukaryotes, including animals and plants. We questioned whether DNA methylation and histone deacetylation overlap in the regulation of endogenous plant genes by monitoring changes in expression of approximately 7800 Arabido...
متن کاملGenetic architecture of transcript-level variation in differentiating xylem of a eucalyptus hybrid.
Species diversity may have evolved by differential regulation of a similar set of genes. To analyze and compare the genetic architecture of transcript regulation in different genetic backgrounds of Eucalyptus, microarrays were used to examine variation in mRNA abundance in the differentiating xylem of a E. grandis pseudobackcross population [E. grandis x F(1) hybrid (E. grandis x E. globulus)]....
متن کاملAbundant genetic variation in transcript level during early Drosophila development.
Variation in gene expression may underlie many important evolutionary traits. However, it is not known at what stage in organismal development changes in gene expression are most likely to result in changes in phenotype. One widely held belief is that changes in early development are more likely to result in changes in downstream phenotypes. In order to discover how much genetic variation for t...
متن کاملQTL mapping reveals complex genetic architecture of quantitative virulence in the wheat pathogen Zymoseptoria tritici
We conducted a comprehensive analysis of virulence in the fungal wheat pathogen Zymoseptoria tritici using QTL mapping. High throughput phenotyping based on automated image analysis allowed measurement of pathogen virulence on a scale and with a precision that was not previously possible. Across two mapping populations encompassing more than 520 progeny, 540,710 pycnidia were counted and their ...
