RNA sequencing of Arabidopsis treated with lead or vanadium
Heavy metal toxicity as a result of industrial processes and human activities has been causing adverse effects on the environment. Lead (Pb) and Vanadium (V) are present in crude oil-contaminated land and water bodies. They pose a potential risk to the flora and fauna in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. We used RNA sequencing to characterize the gene expression profiles of Arabidopsis plants exposed to Pb and V. The main aim was to study the changes in gene expression in A. thaliana plants exposed to V and Pb and compare it with the mock-treated (water) control samples.
The accession and its GCC connection are verified. Registration alone does not establish that the broader research programme remains active.
