Name Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) Trichome isolated from the stem
Organism Medicago sativa
Tissue Glandular trichomes isolated from stem
Stage Trichome from the stem, approximately 8-12 inches long, clipped from plants 2-3 inches above the crown
Description Vector: pDNR-LIB; Site_1: Sfi IA (GGCCATTACGGCC); Site_2: Sfi IB (GGCCGCCTCGGCC); Glandular-haired alfalfa plants were established in green house in 40 half gallon pots. Plants were grown in Metromix 350 and fertilized with MiracleGro as needed. They were cut back closely to encourage the emergence of vigorous shoots. Trichomes were isolated from stems, approximately 8-12 inches long, clipped from plants 2-3 inches above the crown. With minimal handling of the stem, the apical bud, leaves and nodes were discarded, and the trichomes isolated from the internode segments. The cDNA library from alfalfa trichome was constructed using the Creator Smart cDNA library construction kit (Clontech, Palo Alto, CA, USA) following the manufacturer's protocol for total RNA.
