Differentially expressed genes in berries and rachis of berry shrivel grape clusters used to prepare figures for a review

Grapevine berry shrivel is a ripening disorder leading to significant economic losses in the worldwide wine and table grape industries. Sugar accumulation stops early after ripening onset accompanied with cell death in berreis and subtending pecicels and rachis finally resulting in berry shrinkage. To date, the triggers of BS remain unknown. The dataset supports figures prepared for an review which aims to summarize and critically discuss the current knowledge. Data are expressed as differentially expressed genes obtained from grape berries samples collected at six developmental stages (pre- until post-veraison) analysed with RNASeq and two pooled samples (pre- and BS symptomatic) from the rachis analyzed with a microarray study. Extracted information focus on primary metabolic processes including sugar transport and metabolism, organic acid metabolism, stress signaling and cell as well as cell wall organisation. Data are mean values of three biological represent and presented as log2 fold changes including statistical information. A meta-data sheet provides the most relevant information and references.
