RNA-Seq of Ammopiptanthus nanus: leaves of seedling control
Drought is one of the most important abiotic stresses that seriously affects the survival, growth and distribution of plants. Ammopiptanthus nanus, a rare evergreen broad-leaved shrub in arid region in Central Asia, exhibits a high level of tolerance to low temperature and drought stresses. In order to delve into the molecular mechanism underlying the drought tolerance, De novo transcriptome analysis of the response to drought stress in the leaves of A. nanus were performed using RNA-Seq technique. By high-throughput sequencing with Illumina platform,
