description: This microarray targets 34546 mRNA-like transcripts inclusing 26254 annotated coding genes (TAIR8), 6,946 coding sORFs identified at Hanada et al (Genome Research 2007 17:632-640) and 1,346 novel transcripts verified by full length cDNAs. This microarray will be useful for scientists studying gene activity associated with various plant organ functions, stages of growth, and biotic and abiotic stresses.
  
  
  Arrays of this design have barcodes that begin with 16022830 or 2522830.
  
  Orientation:
  Features are numbered numbered Left-to-Right, Top-to-Bottom as scanned by an Agilent scanner (barcode on the left, DNA on the back surface, scanned through the glass), matching the FeatureNum output from Agilent's Feature Extraction software.
  
  The ID column represents the Agilent Feature Extraction feature number.
  
  Rows and columns are numbered as scanned by an Axon Scanner (barcode on the bottom, DNA on the front surface).
  
  To match data scanned on an Axon scanner, use the RefNumber column contained in the Agilent-provided GAL file as the ID_REF column in sample submissions.
