RNA-seq of Paspalum vaginatum under water defict condition
This study aims to evaluate the gene expression profile of the diploid grass Paspalum vaginatum Swartz in response to water deficit in order to characterize and classify this accession regarding its drought tolerance strategies and also for a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved. Paspalum vaginatum were cultivated in pots and in triplicate under two conditions : Control (without water stress with relative soil moisture of 28 percent) and Treatment with relative soil moisture of 6 percent reached after eight days of water stress. Leaf samples were collected for mRNA extraction and sent for sequencing.
