摘要: |
葡萄转录组已在各种组织、发育阶段、生物胁迫、非生物胁迫和其他条件下被测定。目前,仍没有简单实用的网络工具来探索这些宝贵的数据。本文从美国国立生物技术信息中心的基因表达数据库(NCBI GEO)下载1019个基因表达芯片数据,进行权重基因共表达网络分析(WGCNA)。鉴定到41个基因共表达模块。功能富集分析发现这些模块具有不同的功能,并与实验/表型相关。通过模块内连接度筛选枢纽基因,这些基因可能具有重要功能。通过关联推定(Guilt-by-association)原理对模块内功能未知的基因进行功能预测。最后,构建了免费的网络工具VitisMod,为葡萄的基因功能研究提供新资源,网址为:http://bioinformatics.fafu.edu.cn/grape。 |

Abstract: |
Grape (Vitis vinifera L.) transcriptomes have been extensively profiled in different tissues, at various developmental stages, under biotic or abiotic stresses, and other conditions. However, there is still no user-friendly tool to explore these precious data. A total of 1 019 microarray sample data were downloaded from the National Center for Biotechnology Information Gene Expression Omnibus database (NCBI GEO). Weighted gene correlation network analysis (WGCNA) was conducted. Forty-one gene co-expression modules were identified. Module functional annotation suggested that these modules performed different functions and were associated with experimental conditions/phenotypes. Hub genes, which bear important functions, were screened based on intra-module connectivity. Module genes with unknown functions were annotated according to the “guilt-by-association” rationale. Finally, a web tool VitisMod was developed as a new resource for grape gene function investigation. VitisMod is freely available at http://bioinformatics.fafu.edu.cn/grape/. |
