Flax transcriptome under imbalanced nutrition (Stormont cirrus)

Cultivated flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) is widely used for production of textile, food, chemical and pharmaceutical products. However, various stresses decrease flax production. Search for genes, which are involved in stress response, is necessary for breeding of adaptive cultivars. Imbalanced concentration of nutrient elements in soil decrease flax yields and also results in heritable changes in some flax lines. In the present study, high-throughput sequencing was used for gene expression evaluation in flax plants under unfavorable nutrient content in soil.
