Project description:We report the first RNA sequencing data of 1.25% chitosan-coated and uncoated (control) fruit of Musa acuminata (AAA Group, Subgroup Cavendish) at unripe (day 1) and ripe (day 7) stage
Project description:Fe'i banana (Musa troglodytarum) fruit is carotenoid-rich and has been proposed to be utilized as a functional food. We report the first transcriptome of zebrafish (Danio rerio) intestine that were subjected to 8 weeks of Fe'i banana and Cavendish (Musa acuminata) diet. We found that Fe'i consumption in zebrafish modulated genes related to innate immunity.
