RNA-seq of Petunia open flowers for differences in scent-related genes between P. axillaris, P. exserta & P. inflata. Petunia

This experiment was carried out to analyse the expression differences of genes involved in scent production between Petunia species. RNA was sequenced from one day old open flowers limb of P. axillaris ssp. axillaris N, P. exserta, P. integrifolia ssp. inflata S6 (aka P. inflata S6), and the F1 (P. a. ssp. axillaris N x P. i. ssp. inflata S6) between the two species. Three biological replicates were sequenced per sample.
