BioProject Page

Investigation unique ID n/a
Investigation title SRP002613 - Good/Bad Cork
Investigation description "Besides, the economic importance of cork production and cork manufacturing, little attention has been paid to the molecular mechanisms underlying wood and cork formation as well as cork quality.To overcome this constraint, an international partnership (SuberGene) was established 2008, involving Portuguese and French research institutions and one Producer’s Association organization (FJLF). The main driving force of this partnership is to join efforts and complementary skills to unravel to the molecular mechanisms underlying cork formation and decipher the s tructural polymorphisms and regulation network that determine cork quality."

PRJEB33874 - Phellem vs. Xylem

BioProject Page

Investigation unique ID PRJEB33874
Investigation title PRJEB33874 - Phellem vs. Xylem
Investigation description "Cork cambium (or phellogen) is a secondary meristem, responsible for the formation of phelloderm and phellem/cork, which together compose the periderm. In Quercus suber, the phellogen is active throughout the entire life of the tree, producing a continuous and renewable out-bark of cork. To identify specific candidate genes associated with cork cambium activity and phellem differentiation, we performed a comparative transcriptomic study of Q. suber secondary growth tissues (xylem and phellem), using RNA-seq. The present work provides for the first time a detailed description of all the transcripts identified in phellem tissues. A total of 6013 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified, with 2875 of the transcripts being specifically enriched during the cork formation process versus secondary xylem formation. Furthermore, cork samples originating from the original phellogen (“virgin” cork) and from a traumatic phellogen (“amadia” cork) were also compared. Our results point out to a shortlist of potentially relevant candidate genes regulating phellogen activity and phellem differentiation, including novel genes involved in the suberization process, as well as genes associated to ethylene and jasmonate signalling, and to meristem function. The future functional characterization of some of the identified candidate genes will help to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying cork cambium activity and phellem differentiation."
