description: These cDNA clones were obtained from NSF Plant Genome EST projects led by Ginny Walbot and Pat Schnable.
manufacture_protocol: The ISU microarray facility have generated a maize gene chip that contains 13,056 spotted cDNA inserts. In this chip there are 12 x 4 subgrids, each grid contains 17x16=272 spots, totally the number of spots=14x4x272=13056, which includes 1056 empty spots, 22 unknown spots and 211 exogenous spots. After removing these uninformative spots, 11767 informative spots will be left for analysis.
