Comprehensive analysis of the longan transcriptome reveals distinct regulatory programs during the floral transition.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Longan (Dimocarpus longan Lour.) is an important fruit tree in the subtropical regions of Southeast Asia and Australia. Among the factors affecting D. longan fruit yield, the difficulty and instability of blossoming is one of the most challenging issues. Perpetual flowering (PF) is a crucial trait for fruit trees and is directly linked to production potential. Therefore, studying the molecular regulatory mechanism of longan PF traits is crucial for understanding and solving problems related to flowering. In this study, comparative transcriptome analysis was performed using two longan cultivars that display opposite flowering phenotypes during floral induction.

Results

We obtained 853.72 M clean reads comprising 125.08 Gb. After comparing these data with the longan
