Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of WT and dek42 mutant Transcriptomes. Next Generation Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of WT and dek42 mutant Transcriptomes

Analysis of gene expression level. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that dek42 mutant affects starch metabolism and pre-mRNA splicing. Overall design: mRNA profiles of 15 DAP wild type (WT) and dek42 mutant were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina Hiseq 2500 (Zea mays).
