title: De novo assembly and characterization of fruit transcriptome in Lepisanthes fruticosa
design: Total RNA was extracted from mature fruits of L. fruticosa using Fruit-mate for RNA Purification (Takara, Cat. #: 9192) and conventional CTAB method. The quantity and quality of total RNA extracted were assessed using NanoDrop 1000 Spectrophotometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific) and Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer system. A single transcriptome sequence dataset was constructed with Illumina HiSeq 4000 platform.
