Transcriptomic study of the impact of iron toxicity on rice plant

transcriptomic study of the impact of iron toxicity on rice plant (Oryza sativa L.; cv ‘I Kong Pao’ ) after short term (3 days) or long term (3 weeks) exposure to ferrous iron (125 ppm). Twenty five days old rice seedlings were exposed to 0 or 125 mg/L ferrous iron for 3 days and 3 weeks in hydroponic culture. Comparison between control and iron stressed plants were done at the shoot and the root levels. The assays were replicated twice on two independent plant cultures. 8 samples, Two-condition experiment, control (0 ppm ferrous iron) vs. iron treated (125 ppm ferrous iron). Biological replicates: 2 replicates for comparison shoot 3 days of stress, root 3 days of stress, shoot 3 weeks of stress and root 3 weeks of stress.
