Description
The aim of this study is to assess natural variation in transcriptional responses to salt stress in rice. We utilized a diversity panel (RDP1) described in Zhao et al 2011. Eight day old rice seedlings were subjected to a gradual 6 dS·m-1 salt stress for a period of 24h. RNA seqeuncing was performed on shoot tissue using Illumina HiSeq 2500. Overall design: RNA deep sequencing
