Desiccation induces varied responses within a soil bacterial genus. Desiccation induces varied responses within a soil bacterial genus

Nine Curtobacterium strains (three from three clades) were subjected to a lab desiccation experiment with no access to moisture or nutrients to compare between clades. RNA was extracted at days 0, 1, and 32 and sequenced Overall design: We performed RNAseq on nine bacterial isolates. RNA was extracted and sequenced in triplicate at 3 timepoints
