Changes in autumn leaf senescence and coloration in Ginkgo biloba

We sequenced mRNA from Ginkgo biloba leaves grown at different developmental stages using the Illumina HiSeq4000 platform to generate the transcriptome dynamics that may serve as a gene expression profile blueprint for different response patterns during autumn leaf senescence and coloration. These results contribute to the elucidation of the molecular mechanisms involved in the leaf coloration and senescence in G. biloba as well as to the identification of candidate genes involved in this process.
