Gene expression in protoapothecia from Ascodesmis nigricans. Ascodesmis nigricans

The aim of this analysis was to analyze gene expression in young fruiting bodies (protoapothecia) of the filamentous ascomycete Ascodesmis nigricans. Young fruiting bodies were isolated by laser microdissection, RNA was extracted, amplified and used for RNA-sequencing. The resulting data were compared to data from total vegetative and sexual mycelium. Overall design: Two independent biological replicates were performed and sequenced.
