Transcriptome Profiling of a Soybean Mutant with Salt Tolerance Induced by Gamma-ray Irradiation.

ABSTRACT: Salt stress is a significant abiotic stress that reduces crop yield and quality globally. In this study, we utilized RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in response to salt stress induced by gamma-ray irradiation in a salt-tolerant soybean mutant. The total RNA library samples were obtained from the salt-sensitive soybean cultivar Kwangan and the salt-tolerant mutant KA-1285. Samples were taken at three time points (0, 24, and 72 h) from two tissues (leaves and roots) under 200 mM NaCl. A total of 967,719,358 clean reads were generated using the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform, and 94.48% of these reads were mapped to 56,044 gene models of the soybean reference genome (Glycine_max_Wm82.a2.v1). The DEGs with expression values were compared at each time
