Recent gene expression studies have used high-throughput RNA-sequencing technology (RNA-seq), which allowed surveys of transcriptomes at an unprecedented resolution.
In the past, several thousand SNPs were identified and reported using RNA-sequencing technologies (5, 8).
We used the novel Solexa system (RNA-Seq) which uses whole-genome RNA sequencing technology 5 to compare gene expression levels in infected and uninfected cells.
In their latest study, which was led by Ph.D. student Alan Hoban, the researchers used RNA sequencing technology to examine gene expression in the prefrontal cortex, which plays a key role in executive functions such as planning and decision-making, and also in processing emotional information, by exercising 'top-down' control over the amygdala and other sub-cortical brain structures.
Li [ 43] used RNA sequencing technology to understand the mechanisms of parthenocarpy and predicted 14 genes as putative parthenocarpic genes.
To better understand the molecular mechanisms behind this, the transcriptomes of grapevine (Vitis vinifera) latent buds and prompt buds were analyzed using RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) technology and compared.
We used both RNA-sequencing (Illumina) and Microarray (Agilent) technologies in parallel to determine differential expression.
Illumina-Solexa RNA sequencing technology was used to sequence the whole transcriptome of Boesenbergia rotunda.
Next-generation high-throughput RNA sequencing technology (RNA-Seq) is a recently-developed method for discovering, profiling, and quantifying RNA transcripts with several advantages over other expression profiling technologies including higher sensitivity and the ability to detect splicing isoforms and somatic mutations [ 16].
Patients take a blood sample, and the company generates a diagnostic report with its RNA sequencing technology and software.
Several interspecific linkage maps have been developed using second generation sequencing technologies e.g., [ 11, 21].
