Drosophila melanogaster developmental transcriptome of whole body thorugh embryogenesis

To understand dynamics of embryonic transcriptome in a high resolution, whole bodies of embryos were collected at 12 time points during the embryogenesis and were subjected to microanalyses. These data were originally obtained aiming to compare to our other microarray data [GSE83460] of PGCs (primordial germ cells; pole cells). RNA from whole body collected at 12 different time points were hybridized to a microrray after Cy3/Cy5 labeling. A pooled total RNA purified from whole embryos at early to late stage was used as a common reference in all hybridizations.
