Germination and stress tolerance of oats treated with pulsed electric field at different phases of seedling growth.

This study explores the impact of pulsed electric field (PEF) application on oat seedling growth and stress tolerance. PEF treatment (99 monopolar, rectangular pulses lasting 10 µs each, with a frequency of 13 Hz and a nominal electric field strength of 2250 V/cm) was applied at two growth stages: (i) when the seedlings had 0.2 cm roots emerging from the kernel, and (ii) when they had a 0.

Comprehensive transcriptome analysis of different potato cultivars provides insight into early blight disease caused by Alternaria solani.

Background: Early blight, caused by the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Alternaria solani, is an economically important disease affecting the tuber yield worldwide. The disease is mainly controlled by chemical plant protection agents. However, over-using these chemicals can lead to the evolution of resistant A.

Transcriptome profiling of two Moringa species and insights into their antihyperglycemic activity.

Background: Moringa concanensis Nimmo (MC), a plant that resembles Moringa oleifera Lam. (MO), has less scientific information but has traditionally been used as a medicinal plant. Moringa species have long been known for their medicinal qualities, which include antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and antihyperglycemic effects.

Exploring the medicinally important secondary metabolites landscape through the lens of transcriptome data in fenugreek (Trigonella foenum graecum L.).

Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.) is a self-pollinated leguminous crop belonging to the Fabaceae family. It is a multipurpose crop used as herb, spice, vegetable and forage.

A knowledge-driven protocol for prediction of proteins of interest with an emphasis on biosynthetic pathways.

This protocol describes a stepwise process to identify proteins of interest from a query proteome derived from NGS data. We implemented this protocol on transcriptome to identify proteins involved in secondary metabolite and vitamin biosynthesis and ion transport. This knowledge-driven protocol identifies proteins using an integrated approach involving sensitive sequence search and evolutionary relationships.

Dataset for the combined transcriptome assembly of and functional annotation.

In this paper, we present the data acquired during transcriptome analysis of the Moringa oleifera [1] from five different tissues (root, stem, leaf, flower and seed) by RNA sequencing. A total of 271 million reads were assembled with an N50 of 2094 bp. The combined transcriptome was assessed for transcript abundance across five tissues.

Distinct Evolutionary Origins of Intron Retention Splicing Events in Antiporter Transcripts Relate to Sequence Specific Distinctions in Species.

The genome of Asian cultivated rice ( L.) shows the presence of six organelle-specific and one plasma membrane () NHX-type cation proton antiporters. Of these, vacuolar-localized is extensively characterized.

The transcriptome enables the identification of candidate genes behind medicinal value of Drumstick tree (Moringa oleifera).

Moringa oleifera is a plant well-known for its nutrition value, drought resistance and medicinal properties. cDNA libraries from five different tissues (leaf, root, stem, seed and flower) of M. oleifera cultivar Bhagya were generated and sequenced.

Identification of splice variant of in ssp. genotypes under salinity stress.

G-box-binding factors are plant transcription factors, involved in a wide range of biological processes including abiotic stress responses. In this study, we analyzed the expression of during salt stress in two contrasting spp. genotypes, and .

Multiple hybrid de novo genome assembly of finger millet, an orphan allotetraploid crop.

Finger millet (Eleusine coracana (L.) Gaertn) is an important crop for food security because of its tolerance to drought, which is expected to be exacerbated by global climate changes. Nevertheless, it is often classified as an orphan/underutilized crop because of the paucity of scientific attention.
