Musa Transcriptome or Gene expression. Musa

In this study, Dajiao (Musa spp. Dajiao; ABB Group) collected from subtropical region of China with high cold-tolerance was used to investigate responses to cold stress at transcriptional level. A cold-sensitive Cavendish (Musa spp. Cavendish; AAA Group) was also examined as a control. A well-established whole genome transcriptome analysis method, based on RNA-Seq was utilized to reveal the different cold tolerance between Cavendish and Dajiao. Our study provides a broad picture of the Cavendish and Dajiao cold-responsive transcriptomes, and cold-tolerance molecular mechanisms of Dajiao under cold stress.本研究以采自中国亚热带地区、耐寒性优异的大蕉（芭蕉属（Musa spp.），ABB基因组群）为材料，从转录组水平探究其对低温胁迫的响应。同时以低温敏感型的卡文迪许蕉（Musa spp. Cavendish；AAA基因组群）作为对照开展实验。本研究采用基于RNA测序（RNA-Seq）的成熟全基因组转录组分析方法，解析卡文迪许蕉与大蕉之间的耐寒性差异。本研究全面呈现了卡文迪许蕉与大蕉的低温响应转录组图谱，并揭示了大蕉在低温胁迫下的耐寒分子机制。
