Generic sample from Rhizophora mangle
Rhizophora mangle
Rhizophora mangle (Rhizophoraceae) is the keystone dominant plant species in the intertidal neotropical forests. Plant material for this study was taken from both greenhouse and field (Twin Cays, Belize; dwarf, tall, and P-fertilized dwarf). mRNA from 68 different tissue types and growth conditions were pooled. These included young leaf buds and shoot meristems, mature buds, stipules, unrolling leaves, expanding leaves, most recently fully expanded leaves, senescing leaves (early stages), young stem, fine roots, old, thickened roots, mature stem bark, prop root tips, hypocotyl peels, young and mature propagules, and flower. Tissue samples were immediately stored in liquid nitrogen and total RNA was isolated using Agilent Plant RNA isolation mini kit.
