Zingiber officinale Transcriptome or Gene expression. Zingiber officinale

Rhizome, root and leaf of Yellow ginger were compared in this study. Rhizomes from 2, 3, 4, 6, and 7 month old plants (after planting) were compared to each other and to root from 2 and 7 month plants and leaves from 2 and 7 month old plants. Plants were grown under controlled conditions in the greenhouse. Overall design: We used an interwoven loop design for hybridizations. There are two interwoven loops included in this experiment: one for rhizome developmental stages (2, 3, 4, 6, and 7 months old), the other one for all tissues of 2 and 7 month old plants. These interwoven designs are connected at the 2 month old and 7 month old rhizome samples.
