RNA-seq transcriptomic profiling of crassulacean acid metabolism pathway in Dendrobium catenatum.

ABSTRACT: The regulation of crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) pathway has recently become a topic of intensive research and has been explored in terms of several aspects, including phylogenetics, genomics, and transcriptomics. Orchidaceae, which contains approximately 9,000 CAM species, is one of the largest lineages using this special photosynthetic pathway. However, no comprehensive transcriptomic profiling focused on CAM regulation in orchid species had previously been performed. In this report, we present two Illumina RNA-seq datasets, including a total of 24 mature leaf samples with 844.4 million reads, from Dendrobium catenatum (Orchidaceae), a facultative CAM species. The first dataset was generated from a time-course experiment based on the typical CAM phases in a diel. The second was deriv
