Arabidopsis thaliana WT and mutant cngc16 pollen grain heat stress transcriptome

RNA-Seq experiment was done to compare cngc16 (a heat-sensitive mutant harboring a knockout of cyclic nucleotide-gated channel 16) and wild type pollen for differences in their response to a temperature stress condition. Transcriptomes were analyzed from mature pollen grains harvested at midday from plants grown under normal (control) conditions or a heat stress regime. For the stress condition, plants were grown under a diurnal cycle of hot and cold temperatures and pollen were harvested at the end of a HS period that peaked at 40 degrees Celsius.
