Identification and Characterization of Circular RNAs in Brassica rapa in Response to Plasmodiophora brassicae.

ABSTRACT: Plasmodiophora brassicae is a soil-borne pathogen that attacks the roots of cruciferous plants and causes clubroot disease. CircRNAs are noncoding RNAs, widely existing in plant and animal species. Although knowledge of circRNAs has been updated continuously and rapidly, information about circRNAs in the regulation of clubroot disease resistance is extremely limited in Brassica rapa. Here, Chinese cabbage (BJN 222) containing clubroot resistance genes (CRa) against P. brassicae Pb4 was susceptible to PbE. To investigate the mechanism of cicRNAs responsible for clubroot disease resistance in B. rapa, circRNA-seq was performed with roots of 'BJN 222' at 0, 8, and 23 days post-inoculated (dpi) with Pb4 and PbE. A total of 231 differentially exp
