RNA-seq of roots from Solanum lycopersicum cv Micro-Tom infected with the fungus Moniliophthora perniciosa
MT plants were germinated in a 1:1 mixture of substrate:expanded vermiculite and grown under controlled conditions in a growth chamber at 25oC, 14 h photophase and 80% humidity. The shoot apex and axillary buds of 17-d-old tomato seedlings were inoculated with 70 L of 10^6 basidiospores in 0.3% agar-water (w/v), and the plants were kept in a humid chamber for 48 h. Control plants were treated with 0.3% agar-water. 5 replicates of roots from each treatment were collected at 5, 10, 20, and 30 dai.
