Transcriptional data for jasmonate-mediated tobacco response to Phytophthora nicotianae

Transcriptional assay of control and NtCOI1-silenced tobacco leaves after infection by Phytophthora nicotianae. The transcriptional data were obtained by a high-throughout RNA-seq assay on an Illumina second-generation high-throughput sequencing platform. The overall number of mapped reads for control plants is 160,863,066, including 3,934,116 multiple mapped reads and 156,928,950 uniquely mapped reads, and the total number of mapped reads for NtCOI1-RI plants is 141,680,162 including 3,141,296 multiple mapped reads and 138,538,866 uniquely mapped reads. The expression levels of DEGs (differentially expressed genes) were calculated based on the number of uniquely mapped reads using the FPKM (fragments per kilobase of exon model per million mapped reads) method. Among these DEGs, 31,644 genes were expressed in both NtCOI1-RI plants and control plants, whereas 1,160 genes and 3,142 genes were specifically expressed in NtCOI1-RI plants and control plants, respectively (mean FPKM value>1.0).
