Transcriptomic data during seed maturation in dormant and non-dormant genotypes of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.).

ABSTRACT: The present data profiles a large scale transcriptome changes in seed tissues (embryo and endosperm) during maturation in dormant and non-dormant genotypes of hexaploid wheat. Seed dormancy is an adaptive trait that has a significant influence on the incidence of preharvest sprouting, which is referred to as the germination of grains on the spike prior to harvest, in wheat. Given that preharvest sprouting causes a substantial yield and quality losses, elucidation of the molecular features that regulate seed dormancy has a paramount significance in the development of preharvest sprouting resistant wheat cultivars. The data presented here was produced from total RNA/mRNA samples isolated from developing seeds of dormant and non-dormant wheat genotypes using the Affymetrix GeneChip Wheat Geno
