Exploring with microarrays:  how do plants respond to drought?

9/15/09

 

Microarray and Next Generation DNA sequencing technologies are giving us new abilities to understand how living things respond to environmental change.  One of the ways we can use this new information is to study gene expression under different conditions.  In this activity, we will explore microarray data from plants as they experience drought.


  1. 1.View information for the data set and overview.

  2. 2.Download the instructions (available soon).   

  3. 3.Instructors may obtain a set of questions for students to answer and an updated answer key (available soon).

  4. 4. Microarray data have been pre-loaded and partially analyzed using GeneSifter Analysis Edition (Geospiza, Inc.)
