Transcriptomic analysis of Boswellia sacra wounding stress responses during resin extraction. Transcriptomic analysis of Boswellia sacra wounding stress responses during resin extraction

Here we report the RNAseq data, related to wounding stress caused for resin production. We extracted RNA from the stem of B. sacra plant collected after 0 day and 30 min of wounding stress (two biological replicates) using the Pure Link Plant RNA reagent kit (Life Technologies, USA) with some modifications and in-house developed HMW RNA extraction method. The de novo assembled transcripts of B. sacra were annotated by performing a BLAST search with the software Blast2GO v.2.6.0 (Conesa et al., 2005). The BLASTx search was done with cut-off E-values of 1.0e−1 and 1.0e−3 against the non-redundant protein sequence database. The same software was used to obtain the gene ontology (GO) information for the assembled transcripts describing different biological processes, molecular function and cellular components. Overall design: Examination of wounding and control stem.
