Get to know how we analyse grapevine expressed genes by RNA-seq

RNA-seq is a powerful, cost-effective tool for surveying plant response to specific conditions. Knowing which genes are being expressed under certain circumstances can help you select grapevine varieties or cultivars more resistant to stressors such as drought, frost, or pathogens.

At AllGenetics we use high-throughput sequencing to identify candidate genes underlying phenotypic traits of interest, providing invaluable information for genetic improvement programmes.

The image is a typical workflow of a RNA-seq analysis aimed at detecting agronomically-important genes for the Wine industry. The workflow includes RNA isolation from grapevine material, library preparation, high-throughput sequencing, and bioinformatic analysis. The results are a gene expression quantification analysis and the detection of differentially expressed genes between the environmental conditions tested.

Step 1

We isolate RNA from your grapevine samples.

Step 2

We purify the RNA fraction you are interested in (total RNA, mRNA, small RNAs...) and prepare cDNA libraries using the kits recommended by Illumina.

Step 3

We sequence the libraries using the Illumina NovaSeq technology. Millions of reads per library are obtained in this step.

Step 4

We analyse the high-throughput sequencing data obtained in the previous step.
