Transcriptomes from Yucca species using C3 and CAM photosynthesis
RNA-seq on C3 (Yucca filamentosa), CAM (Yucca aloifolia), and their hybrid (Yucca gloriosa) was conducted on tissue sampled over a 24 hour period, every 4 hours, from both well-watered and drought-stressed plants. Our research aims were to 1) describe variation in gene expression of CAM pathway genes, 2) discern regulatory changes via gene co-expression network construction, and 3) assess alterations to carbohydrate metabolism and other processes.
