Abstract

The   expression level  of snoRNA transcripts  was investigated under PEGstimulated  drought stress  by Affymetrix 60 k rice genome array. The expression of rice snoRNA transcripts  was  cultivarspecific under  drought stress. A total of 23 snoRNA transcripts from Aihua 5  and only two snoRNA transcripts from Xiangfengzao 119 were upregulated under the osmotic stress. The snoRNA transcripts   from two cultivars were box C/D type and  presented in five gene clusters  on  the chromosomes for these snoRNA transcripts.  Moreover, an overlap transcript encoding Z274 snoRNA from two cultivars was obtained, but the changed fold of the Z274 snoRNA transcript from Aihua 5 was 1654 fold more than that of Xiangfengzao 119.
