Transcriptome analysis in different types of lateral root primordia in rice

We aimed to detect the differentially expressed genes between S- and L-type lateral root primordia in wild type rice (Taichung 65). Rice seedlings were grown hydroponically and L-type lateral root formation were induced by root tip excision on a seminal root. S- and L-type lateral root primordia were sampled from seminal roots without or with 12 hours of root tip excision using laser microdissection. The extracted RNA from each type were subjected for RNA-seq analysis.
