Transcriptome profile of rice genotypes ZH11 and Oseds1 by inoculation with Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae

OsEDS1 is a key regulator of SA-mediated immunity in plants. The OsEDS1 knockout mutant (Oseds1) was characterized and shown to have increased susceptibility to Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) and Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc), suggesting the positive role of OsEDS1 in regulating rice disease resistance. To identify differentially regulated downstream of Oseds1, we performed transcriptome deep sequencing (RNA-seq) of wild type (ZH11) and Oseds1 inoculated with Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae (PXO99A). Overall design: The leaves of ZH11 and Oseds1 were inoculated with Xoo, and samples were harvested at 48 hours post-inoculation. The transcriptional changes were analyzed by RNA-seq.
