Root transcriptomic response of three potato cultivars (Desirée, Innovator, Mozart) to salt stress (NaCl=125mM) after 6h and 24h

This experiment aims to compare the transcriptomic response of three potato potato cultivars to salt stress. Plants were grown in hydroponic conditions (0.5MS +0.05MES) with long day light cycle (16h/8h). Roots were collected at ZT10 (time point 6h) and the following day at ZT4 (time point 24h). Three biological replicates were used and each biological replicate is composed of the roots of three plants. Tissues were flash-frozen in liquid nitrogen and subsequently ground with a mortar. RNA was extracted with FavorPrep™ Plant Total RNA Mini Kit from FAVORGEN. DNA was degraded in the column with RNase-free DNase I (Roche).
