Abstract

In the European integrated research project SAFEFOODS, one of the aims was to further establish the potential of transcriptomics for the assessment of differences between plant varieties grown under different environmental conditions. Making use of the knowledge of cellular processes and interactions is one of the ways to obtain a better understanding of the differences found with transcriptomics. For the present study the potato genotype Santé was grown under both organic and conventional fertilizer, and each combined with either organic or conventional crop protection, giving four different treatments. Samples were derived from the European project QualityLowInputFood (QLIF). Microarray data were analyzed using different statistical tools (multivariate, principal components analysis (PCA); univariate, analysis of variance (ANOVA)) and with pathway analysis (hypergeometric distribution (HGD) and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA)). Several biological processes were implicated as a result of the different treatments of the plants. Most obvious were the lipoxygenase pathway, with higher expression in organic fertilizer and lower expression in organic crop protection; the starch synthase pathway, with higher expression in both organic crop protection and fertilizer; and the biotic stress pathway, with higher expression in organic fertilizer. This study confirmed that gene expression profiling in combination with pathway analysis can identify and characterize differences between plants grown under different environmental conditions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
