Comparative transcriptomics of leaves of five mulberry accessions and cataloguing structural and expression variants for future prospects.

ABSTRACT: Bombyx mori, a monophagous insect, prefers leaves of the certain species of Morus more than others. The preference has been attributed to morphological and anatomical features and biochemical compounds. In the present manuscript a comparison has been made among the transcriptome of leaves of the two preferred cultivated varieties and three wild types species. While assembling, high quality transcriptomes of five genotypes were constructed with a total of 100930, 151245, 89724, 181761 and 102908 transcripts from ML, MN, MS, K2 and V1 samples respectively. Further, to compare them, orthologs were identified from these assembled transcriptome. A total of 22462, 23413, 23685, 24371, 18362, 22326, 20058, 18049, 17567 and 20518 clusters of orthologs were found in one to one comparison in KvsN, K
