Project description:Purpose: transcriptome sequencing of Conopomorpha sinensis Methods: high-through Illumina HiSeqTM 2000 Results:66017 transcripts,35383 unigenes Conclusions:This study provided valuable transcriptome data for the litchi fruit borer, which was the first fundamental genomic basis for exploiting gene resources from the litchi fruit borer
Project description:Sugarcane stalk borer larvae were grown on artificial diet and maintained at 25°C and 60±10% relative humidity with a 14 h/10 h light/dark cycle. Second instar larvae were maintained under fasting conditions for 18 h and transferred to two-month old plants (genotype SP80-3280, CTC, Brazil). Leaves were collected after 30 min and 24 h of exposure to herbivory for the control and experimental groups. Two plantlets were used for each time point. Extraction of total RNA was performed separately on each sample pool. Keywords: time course of stress response
