Integrating long noncoding RNAs and mRNAs expression profiles of response to Plasmodiophora brassicae infection in Pakchoi (Brassica campestris ssp. chinensis Makino).

ABSTRACT: The biotrophic protist Plasmodiophora brassicae causes serious damage to Brassicaceae crops grown worldwide. However, the molecular mechanism of the Brassica rapa response remains has not been determined. Long noncoding RNA and mRNA expression profiles in response to Plasmodiophora brassicae infection were investigated using RNA-seq on the Chinese cabbage inbred line C22 infected with P. brassicae. Approximately 5,193 mRNAs were significantly differentially expressed, among which 1,345 were upregulated and 3,848 were downregulated. The GO enrichment analysis shows that most of these mRNAs are related to the defense response. Meanwhile, 114 significantly differentially expressed lncRNAs were identified, including 31 upregulated and 83 downregulated. Furthermore, a total of 2,344 interaction
