Transcriptional profiling of watermelon during its incompatible interaction with Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. Niveum

ABSTRACT: Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) is one of the most important vegetable crops in the world and accounts for 20% of the world’s total area devoted to vegetable production. Fusarium wilt of watermelon is one of the most destructive diseases in watermelon worldwide. Transcriptome profiling of watermelon during its incompatible interactions with Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. niveum (FON) was generated using an Agilent custom microarray which contains 15,000 probes representing approximately 8,200 watermelon genes. A total of 24, 275, 596, 598, and 592 genes that are differentially expressed genes between FON- and mock-inoculated watermelon roots at 0.5, 1, 3, 5 and 8 days post inoculation (dpi), respectively, were identified. Bioinformatics analysis of these differentially expressed genes revealed t
