| Abstract | Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are considered as persistent organic pollutants. Their long term accumulation in soils and progressive bioaccumulation in the food chain makes PCBs a risk for human health. Phytoremediation, or the use of plants to enhance pollutant dissipation, is an efficient technique for the removal of organic compounds, including PCBs. However, the molecular basis of plant responses to PCBs has not been clearly elucidated. Here we studied the effects on growth and the transcriptional profile of Arabidopsis thaliana after exposure to 2,2′,3,3′-tetrachlorobiphenyl, a representative PCB. A comprehensive survey of global gene expression response to this PCB was done by using Arabidopsis (V4) gene expression microarray (4 × 44 K) to quantify the spatio-temporal variations in transcript abundance of 42,000 genes. The results revealed a coordinated induction or suppression of 146 or 148 genes, respectively. Of these, expression of 40 genes was validated by RT-PCR analysis. The functional classification of these PCB-responsive genes indicated their involvement in various metabolic pathways, such as ion transport, signal transduction, transcriptional regulation, and other processes related to growth and development. |

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.
