Identification of putative flowering genes and transcription factors from flower de novo transcriptome dataset of tuberose (Polianthes tuberosa L.).

ABSTRACT: Polianthes tuberosa is commercially popular because of their economic importance in floriculture for cut and loose flowers and in perfume industry because of the unique fragrance. Despite its commercial importance, no ready-to-use transcript sequence information is available in the public database. We have sequenced the RNA obtained from tuberose flowers using the Illumina HiSeq. 2000 platform and have carried out a de novo analysis of the transcriptome data. The de novo assembly generated 11,100 transcripts. These transcripts represent a total of 7876 unigenes that were considered for downstream analysis. These 7876 unigenes, which was further annotated using blast2go and KEGG pathways, were also assigned. Tuberose transcripts were also assigned to metabolic pathways
