Name Solanum lycopersicum trichomes
Organism Solanum lycopersicum
Tissue Isolated leaf trichomes
Stage Apical internodes of 5-week old plants.
Description Vector: pDNR_lib (Clontech); Site_1: Sfi I A (GGCCATTACGGCC); Site_2: Sfi I B (GGCCGCCTCGGCC); Solanum lycopersicum plants were grown on compost in the greenhouse with supplemental lighting (4 h in winter) providing a minimum illumination period of 14 h. Trichomes were harvested from the most apical leaves of 5 week old Solanum lycopersicum plants. Trichomes were harvested by brushing leaves frozen using liquid nitrogen and separated from contaminating leaf fragments by passing the frozen material through a sieve. RNA was isolated from the trichomes using the Qiagen RNeasyMini kit. A cDNA EST library was generated following manufacturers instructions using the Creator SMART cDNA library construction kit (BD Biosciences) starting from total RNA and using the pDNR-LIB vector.
