Project description:Purpose: Panax vietnamensis Ha et Grushv., which contains various valuable ginsenosides, is an important herbal medicine of Vietnam. However, it is an endangered species listed in Vietnam Red Data Book due to over-harvseting. Investigation about genomic or trancriptomic resources is one of the necessary activities to conserve P. vietnamensis Materials and Methods:. In this study, we sequenced the transcriptomes of 1-year-old P. vietnamensis from leaves and roots using Illumina NovaSeqTM6000 system. Results: A total of 60,254,062 and 64,588,528 reads was obtained and then assembled into 45,495 and 49,133 unigenes for leaves and roots, respectively. More than 60% unigenes from two organs were functional annotated using at least one database among Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes, Pfam, Gene Ontology, NCBI non-redundant Protein, and Evolutionary genealogy of genes. Further, the predominant transcripts of each cDNA library were analyzed for different gene expression identification. In addition, 457 unigenes encoding enzymes involved in triterpenoid saponin biosynthesis via the mavelonate (MVA) and the non-MVA (also named as MEP pathways) were discovered.
Project description:In this study, we have performed Illumina based RNA sequencing to characterize the transcriptome and expression profiles of genes expressed in 5 tissues of P. japonicus. RNA sequencing and de novo transcriptome assembly for P. japonicus resulted in a total of 135,235 unigenes with 78,794 (58.24%) unigenes being annotated using NCBI-nr database. Transcriptome profile and GO enrichment analysis for 5 tissues of P. japonicus showed that although each tissue was characterized by several unique unigenes with leaf showing the most unique unigenes among all, overall processes were evenly conserved across all tissues. Examination of 5 tissues of Panax japonicus
Project description:The total RNA were extracted from tissues of roots from several plants of Panax notoginseng under CK and Cd stress treatment by using TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer's instructions. The purified PCR product was sequenced using Illumina Genome Analyzer II. The qualified reads were used to study of Panax notoginseng transcriptome under CK and Cd stress treatment.
Project description:Methods: Panax notoginseng was used to treat MCAO model rats, and the differentially expressed genes between Panax notoginseng group and model group were identified by RNA SEQ, and the possible mechanism of Panax notoginseng in regulating ischemic stroke was analyzed
