Expression profile of Arabidopsis pistil/silique upon induction of FRUITFULL

To determine the genes that are regulated by FRUITFULL (FUL) in the pistil/silique, we identied differentially expressed genes after induction of FRUITFULL in ful-1 FUL-GR lines using the AGRONOMICS1 tiling array. The inflorescences of flowering plants were dipped in 10 uM DEX solution or in Mock Solution, and the flowers/siliques from stages 12-16 were harvested after 8 hours. RNA was extracted and DNase treated, and subsequent steps and hybridization to the AGRONOMICS Tiling array were performed by the Functional Genomics Center Zurich.
