How an ancient, salt-tolerant fruit crop, Ficus carica L., copes with salinity: a transcriptome analysis.

Although Ficus carica L. (fig) is one of the most resistant fruit tree species to salinity, no comprehensive studies are currently available on its molecular responses to salinity. Here we report a transcriptome analysis of F.

Cultivar-specific transcriptome prediction and annotation in L.

The availability of transcriptomic data sequence is a key step for functional genomics studies. Recently, a repertoire of predicted genes of a Japanese cultivar of fig ( L.) was released.
