Specificity and overlap in gene segment-defined antibody repertoires.

abstract：BACKGROUND:'Systems-wide' approaches such as microarray RNA-profiling are ideally suited to the study of the complex overlapping responses of plants to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, commercial microarrays are only available for a limited number of plant species and development costs are so substantial as to be ...
