Transcriptomic Analysis of Resistance Sengon (Falcataria moluccana) Against Gall Rust Uses Long Read Sequencing

Sengon (Falcataria moluccana) is a popular tree species in community plantation forests in Java, Indonesia due to its fast-growing and multipurpose characteristics. However, without effective control measures sengon plantations are vulnerable to gall rust (Uromycladium falcatariae) infestation. Previous research found some gall rust -resistant trees amid mostly susceptible individuals. This dataset was created to study differences in gene expressions between resistant and susceptible accessions, and to identify candidate genes involved in gall rust resistance in sengon. Data description RNA was extracted from fresh leave samples collected from eight individual seedling. Seedlings were inoculated with Uromycladium falcatarium fungus.
