This dataset contains RNA-Seq data from nine fruit species (Tomato, Strawberry, Eggplant, Cucumber, Kiwifruit, Nectarine, Pepper, Apple, and Grape), sampled at nine developmental stages. The data provide insights into gene expression dynamics during fruit development.. RNA-Seq data of fruit development across ten species

Fruit development is a complex biological process involving coordinated changes in gene expression that regulate key traits such as growth, ripening, and metabolism. This dataset comprises RNA-Seq data from nine fruit species—Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), Strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa), Eggplant (Solanum melongena), Cucumber (Cucumis sativus), Kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa), Peach (Prunus persica), Pepper (Capsicum annuum), Apple (Malus domestica), and Grape (Vitis vinifera). Each species was sampled at nine developmental stages, capturing transcriptomic changes throughout fruit maturation. These data will support comparative studies of fruit biology as well as predictive modelling.
