Transcriptome profile of papaya ripening. Transcriptome profile of papaya ripening

We report the application of NGS-derived transcriptome profile to elucidate a temporal line of both control and ethylene-induced ripening process of papaya fruit focusing on ripening-induced transcripts that act directly on plant cell wall disassembling Overall design: Fruits were collected at 3 different times of the year (biological triplicate) and treated with 100-ppm ethylene for 12 hours and then let to ripe for 12 hours more. In this way, it was created five groups of analyses: control 0hrs, 12hs and 24hs and ethylene-treated fruits 12hs and 24hs.
