Project description:In this study, we aim to present a global transcriptome analysis of medicinal plant, Catharanthus roseus. We generated about 343 million high-quality reads from three tissues (leaf, root and flower) using Illumina platform. We performed an optimized de novo assembly of the reads and estimated transcript abundance in different tissue samples. The transcriptome dynamics was studied by differential gene expression analyses among tissue samples. We collected different tissue samples from the mature plants. Total RNA isolated from these tissue samples was subjected to Illumina sequencing. The sequence data was further filtered using NGS QC Toolkit to obtain high-quality reads. The filtered reads were used for de novo assembly optimization. The reads were further mapped to the Catharanthus transcripts via CLC Genomics Workbench and differential gene expression analysis was performed using DESeq software.

Project description:For this project, we have sequenced, assembled and annotated a transcriptome of a diploid wheat Triticum urartu accession PI 428198. The sequencing libraries were prepared from shoot and root tissues harvested from 2-3 week old seedlings. All sequencing was carried out on the Illumina HiSeq platform using the 100 bp pair-end protocol (248.5 million reads). The assembly was constructed using a multiple k-mer approach with a de novo assembly algorithm implemented in CLC Genomics Workbench 5.5 and additional redundancy reduction with CD-HIT and blast2cap3 programs. Open reading frames and proteins were predicted using BLASTX searches and a findorf algorithm.
Project description:We first report the use of next-generation massively parallel sequencing technologies and de novo transcriptome assembly to gain insight into the wide range of transcriptome of Hevea brasiliensis. The output of sequenced data showed that more than 12 million sequence reads with average length of 90nt were generated. Totally 48,768 unigenes (mean size = 488 bp) were assembled through transcriptome de novo assembly, which represent more than 3-fold of all the sequences of Hevea brasiliensis deposited in the GenBank. Assembled sequences were annotated with gene descriptions, gene ontology and clusters of orthologous group terms. Total 37,373 unigenes were successfully annotated and more than 10% of unigenes were aligned to known proteins of Euphorbiaceae. The unigenes contain nearly complete collection of known rubber-synthesis-related genes. Our data provides the most comprehensive sequence resource available for study rubber tree and demonstrates the availability of Illumina sequencing and de novo transcriptome assembly in a species lacking genome information.

Project description:We combined multi-omics approaches including de novo transcriptome assembly, ribosome profiling and MS-based peptidomics to study the global role of mRNA translation and small ORFs (sORFs) in rice herbicide resistant mutant.
