Transcriptome Analyses of Two Citrus Cultivars (Shiranuhi and Huangguogan) in Seedling Etiolation.

ABSTRACT: Citrus species are among the most important fruit crops. However, gene regulation and signaling pathways related to etiolation in this crop remain unknown. Using Illumina sequencing technology, modification of global gene expression in two hybrid citrus cultivars-Huangguogan and Shiranuhi, respectively-were investigated. More than 834.16 million clean reads and 125.12 Gb of RNA-seq data were obtained, more than 91.37% reads had a quality score of Q30. 124,952 unigenes were finally generated with a mean length of 1,189 bp. 79.15%, 84.35%, 33.62%, 63.12%, 57.67%, 57.99% and 37.06% of these unigenes had been annotated in NR, NT, KO, SwissProt, PFAM, GO and KOG databases, respectively. Further, we identified 604 differentially expressed genes in multicoloured and etiolated seedlings of Shiranu
