You complete a comparative transcriptomics experiment, where RNA from a plant sample grown in sandy soil is compared to RNA from a plant sample grown in silty soil to learn about differences in regulation of gene expression in these two environments. In preparation for an RNA microarray experiment, the sample grown in sandy soil is labeled with green fluorescence and the sample grown in silty soil is labeled with red fluorescence. What color result(s) would you expect for: A gene that is expressed only in the plant grown in a sandy soil environment? An expressed gene that is expressed, but at equal levels in both samples? a gene that is involved in the trait studied, adaptation to the local soil type? [Choose ] [Choose ] [Choose ]

You complete a comparative transcriptomics experiment, where RNA
from a plant sample grown in sandy soil is compared to RNA from a
plant sample grown in silty soil to learn about differences in
regulation of gene expression in these two environments. In
preparation for an RNA microarray experiment, the sample grown in
sandy soil is labeled with green fluorescence and the sample grown
in silty soil is labeled with red fluorescence. What color result(s)
would you expect for:
A gene that is expressed only
in the plant grown in a sandy
soil environment?
An expressed gene that is
expressed, but at equal levels
in both samples?
a gene that is involved in the
trait studied, adaptation to the
local soil type?
