The transcriptomic response of Tall Fescue (Festuca arundinacea) and Epichloe endophyte to heat stress - Full experiment
This project aims to identify how Epichloe endophyte induces alterations in tall fescue transcriptome under normal and heat-stressed conditions and determine the genes and transcriptional networks responsible for endophyte-induced heat stress tolerance in tall fescue. 3' mRNA sequencing was used to explore the transcriptomic landscapes of endophyte-positive (E+) and endophyte-negative (E-) tall fescue tissues under normal and heat-stress conditions.
