| Abstract | Alternative splicing is one of the major contributors to transcript and protein diversity in many higher eukaryotes including humans, but so far the extent and impact of alternative splicing in plants has not been thoroughly investigated [1]. The purpose of our NSF-Eager grant is to use high-throughput RNA sequencing of the transcriptome to assess the role of alternative splicing in the host-pathogen interaction between Arabidopsis thaliana and Pseudomonas syringae. Although previous studies have demonstrated that alternative splicing plays an important role for individual genes during this interaction [2, 3], our whole-genome approach will investigate thousands of potential splicing events simultaneously. Our method employs a linear models framework to estimate the ratios of known isoforms in a given sample, taking into account the non-uniformity of RNA-Sequencing reads along the targeted transcripts [4]. Recently, we have adapted our method in order to accommodate paired-end sequencing technology. Briefly, we map reads to a transcript catalog (TAIR 10 gene models), partition the reads according to their compatibility with these models, identify reads that are informative for isoform quantification, and then use a linear model to estimate isoform expression ratios for each gene. Our results provide a first approximation of the extent of pathogen-induced alternative splicing and so far indicate evidence for a wide variety of novel alternative transcripts. In addition, the set of differentially spliced genes appears to be independent of the set of differentially expressed genes, providing new evidence for a hidden layer of regulation in the transcriptome [5]. Hence, the set of differentially spliced genes provides a promising set of candidate genes that researchers may have previously overlooked by focusing solely on differential gene expression. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
