Title ESTs from developing reproductive tissues (seeds) of Medicago truncatula
Library name GESD
Library type EST, 5'-3' unidirectional
Organism Medicago truncatula
Cultivar Jemalong A17
Tissue type Immature seeds
Developmental stage Immature seeds, collected from pods ranging in age from 11 to 19 days after pollination, were harvested from greenhouse-grown plants. Seeds were removed and separated from pod walls and were immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen. Seeds throughout the age range were pooled for mRNA extraction.
Vector pBluescript SK-
Lab. host E.coli XLOLR
Cloning site R1 (5') EcoRI
Cloning site R2 (3') XhoI
5' Adaptor sequence 5'-AATTCGGCACGAGG-3'
3' Adaptor sequence 5'-GAGAGAGAGAGAGAGAGAACTAGTCTCGAGT(17)-3'
Description cDNA was prepared from polyA+ enriched RNA. The cDNA was directionally ligated into the Uni-Zap XR vector from Stratagene and packaged using the Gigapack III Gold packaging extracts. Plasmids containing inserts were excised from the recombinant lambda-Zap phage using ExAssist helper phage and propagated in XLOLR cells.
