Project description:Anthurium andraeanum is one of the most popular tropical flowers. In temperate and cold zones, a much greater risk of cold stress occurs in the supply of Anthurium plants. Unlike the freeze-tolerant model plants, Anthurium plants are particularly sensitive to low temperatures. Improvement of chilling tolerance in Anthurium may significantly increase its production and extend its shelf-life. To date, no previous genomic information has been reported in Anthurium plants.
Project description:The transcriptome of two Anthurium cultivars of MH and Ken under high tempearture were sequenced. The differences between the control and the high tempearture treatment samples were analyzed and numerous differentially expressed genes that exhibited distinct expression patterns were identified.
