Triticum aestivum cultivar:Xingzi 9104 Genome sequencing and assembly. Triticum aestivum cultivar:Xingzi 9104

Stripe rust (or yellow rust), which is caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is one of the most devastating wheat diseases worldwide. The wheat cultivar Xingzi 9104 (XZ) is an elite wheat germplasm that possesses adult plant resistance (APR), which is non–race-specific and durable. Thus, to better understand the mechanism underlying APR, we performed transcriptome sequencing of wheat seedlings and adult plants without Pst infection, and a total of 157,689 unigenes were obtained as a reference. Our study provides new information will help further our understanding of the detailed mechanisms underlying APR to Pst.
