Dataset of De Novo hybrid berry transcriptome profiling and characterization of Piper species (Piper nigrum and Piper longum) using Illumina and Nanopore sequencing.

ABSTRACT: Piper nigrum and Piper longum are the most popular and economically essential spice crops globally valued for their aromatic alkaloids, especially Piperine. However, Piperine synthesis pathway mechanisms are not yet well known. This work was aimed to generate the full-length comparative berry transcriptome analysis dataset of P. nigrum and P. longum by Illumina and Nanopore sequencing platforms. While short-read sequencing technology is widely using to capture transcriptome profiles, there are still some limitations due to the read length. We used Oxford Nanopore technology for long reads and the Illumina sequencing platform for short reads to generate a hybrid transcriptome assembly from half matured and fully matured berries of P. nigrum and P. longu
