RNA-seq analysis of citrus leaf samples of treated and untreated trees infected with Liberibacter asiaticus

We evaluated the effect on citrus trees of two newly-identified molecules, benzbromarone and tolfenamic acid, used as antimicrobials in commercial groves of sweet orange (Citrus sinensis). We delivered the molecules by trunk injection and evaluated safety and efficacy parameters by performing RNAseq of the citrus host responses. Overall design: Examination of two different molecules over L. asiaticus host transcriptome
