BACKGROUND:
Plant gametophytes play central roles in sexual reproduction. A hallmark of the plant life
cycle is that gene expression is required in the haploid gametophytes. Consequently, many
mutant phenotypes are expressed in this phase.
RESULTS:
We perform a quantitative RNA-seq analysis of embryo sacs, comparator ovules with the
embryo...

ABSTRACT
Eukaryotes produce functionally diverse classes of
small RNAs (20–25 nt). These include microRNAs
(miRNAs), which act as regulatory factors during
growth and development, and short-interfering
RNAs (siRNAs), which function in several epigenetic
and post-transcriptional silencing systems. The
Arabidopsis Small RNA Project (ASRP) seeks to characterize
and functionally analyze the...
