This project has been funded by NSF award #
0501857
(PIs: Y. Yu, C. Soderlund, V. Walbot), which
will generate ~30,000 maize FLcDNA sequences.
The project
will use genomics tools to understand a fundamental biological process
through identificaion of genes expressed during maize reproduction and in somatic tissues
responding to abiotic perturbations such as heat, cold, salt, UV-B, drought, and lack of light.
See objectives for detailed information.
