Tomato TSS-seq analysis

Tomatoes are the one of the most widely cultivated and consumed crops worldwide among vegetables. It is beneficial to construct reference sequences in tomato wild relatives which are often used for breeding. These datasets represented here consist of TSS-seq analysis which determines the transcriptional start in two wild tomatoes, Solanum pimpinellifoium and S. cheesmaniae, and one cultivated tomato S. lycopersicum var. cerasiforme. The datasets obtained from this study will be combined with transcriptome datasets (RNA-seq reads) and used to determine full length of gene structure. This study aims to improve gene annotation for these species in order to gain precise insight into genetic diversity as well as develop genetic markers useful for plant breeding.
