Project description:Baby leaves of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) are widely used to produce ready-to-eat salads all around the year. For this purpose, lettuce plants are cultivated under plastic tunnels and harvested at a very early growth stage, between 30-45 days after sowing depending on the season, cultivar and site of cultivation. Usually, the plastic film covering the cultivation tunnels transmits only a very small amount of the solar UVB radiation and partially attenuates UVA radiation. We used UV treatment post-harvest of fresh-cut lettuce baby leaves to compare the efficiency of two UV emission wavebands centred at 306 and 366 nm (achieved by employing narrow-band UV LEDs sources) to identify putative transcriptomic signatures. The analyses have been carried out supported by and in the frame of Project @CNR 2021, Title "EnhAncement of Natural anTIviral Compounds in ready- to-eat Vegetables", Acronym: ANTI-CoV to Dr. G. Agati. IDP-NAHEP, ICAR, Govt of India to A.R.B.
Project description:There are 18 ready-to-eat food samples (8 ready-to-eat meat, 7 ready-to-eat vegetables and 3 ready-to-eat fruit) and 6 human faecal samples. The samples were sequenced on the Illumina, NovaSeq PE150.
