Alterations in retrotransposon control lead to a wide gene reprogramming in tobacco

We sequenced mRNA from leaves of 4 N. tabacum lineages, one control and biological replicates of mutants presenting a chlorotic spots phenotype on leaves resultant from the interference in Tnt1 retrotransposon expression, in order to identify genes co-regulated with Tnt1 Overall design: Examination of mRNA levels in control and mutant tobacco leaves
