RNA-seq performed on Brassica oleracea var. italica (broccoli) control and blindness-affected plants, sampled from both leaves and roots.

Blindness, characterized by apical abortion, is a physiological condition that affects the Brassica family. While exposure to low temperatures during early development has been associated with blindness, the underlying causes and their impact on proper development remain unknown. This study aims to investigate the mechanisms involved in blindness occurrence in broccoli plants.
