Project description:Transcriptomes analysis of the petals from a red-flowered white clover mutant (red flowers) and its shade-treated counterpart (white flowers) grown under shaded conditions was performed using high-throughput sequencing. We obtained 121,626,564 and 130,577,944 clean reads in red-flowered mutant and treated counterpart, respectively. Of these clean reads, we respectively gained 125,350 and 99,638 unigene sequencces in two groups. As a result, a total of 157,964 unigenes were obtained with an average length of 728 bp and a median length of 1346 bp. These findings provideed insights into the expression profiles in red-flowered white clover mutant, and deepened our understanding of flower pigmentation in white clower.
