Illumina reads from petal samples of gerbera cultivar Estelle/Ivory
Samples from two developmental stages of gerbera petals were collected, total RNA extracted and polyA fraction selected before sequencing. The developmental stages realet to start (stage 5) and finish (stage 7) of anthocyanin biosynthesis. Cultivar Ivory is a mutant branch of Estelle, carrying a single bp change in the gene encoding dihydroflavonol 4-reductase.
