Dataset of Cavendish banana transcriptome in response to chitosan coating application.

ABSTRACT: Banana is a climacteric fruit and its ripening process is greatly influenced by presence of ethylene. This physiological climacteric characteristic of banana fruit leads to a fast ripening and a short shelf-life. Application of edible coating such as chitosan aims to prolong fruit shelf life. The knowledge on gene expression will help to understand the fruit ripening process itself and chitosan effect on global gene expression. Global gene expression data of chitosan treated and control of Cavendish banana during fruit ripening were provided. Total RNA was isolated from banana pulp for differential gene expression analysis. The RNA-sequencing generated ranged from 16,155,947 to 23,587,110 total reads, with 75.8%-83.8% of reads were mapped against the genome reference. In total, 33,797-35,9
