Multi-targeting priming (MTP) for genome-wide gene expression assays provides selective targeting of multiple sequences and counter-selection against undesirable sequences. We demonstrated superior performance of two MTPs compared to oligo-dT microarray profling and RNA tag sequencing the response of Saccharomyces cerevisiae to nitrogen deficiency and profiling Neurospora crassa early sexual development. Priming with MTPs in addition to oligo-dT resulted in higher sensitivity, a greater number of well-measured genes, more genes significantly differentially expressed, and a greater power to detect meager differences. Overall design: Neurospora crassa mat A FGSC#2489 Three developmental stages and two different primers used for reverse transcription: mycelium oligo(dT) M1 protoperithecia oligo(dT) PP1 perithecia oligo(dT) PT1 mycelium oligo(dT)+ Multi-Targeted Primer [MTP] (M2) protoperithecia oligo(dT)+ MTP (PP2) perithecia oligo(dT)+ MTP (PT2) Less...
