Outline of Final Research Achievements |
From the flower color traits of the adventitious shoots from each histogen layer, it was revealed that 'Kilauea' is a non-chimeric cultivar, and 'Monique', 'Concord' are chimeric cultivars. For chimeric cultivars, genotype of each histogen layer was identified by PCR. Moreover, the substance migrating between the histogen layers concluded not to be mRNA from the results of RT-PCR using RNA derived from the L1 layer. In non-chimeric cultivars, it was thought that factors related to epigenetics such as siRNA are migrating between the hostogen layers, but this hypothesis was denied from the result of NGS analysis. Today, based on the Sequel sequence, genome methylation analysis is carried out to analyze the genes involved in the epigenetics.
