Species and ploidy implication on transcriptomic response to salt stress in Citrus.
Seedlings of diploid and tetraploid accessions representative of two species with highly contrasted behavior against salt stress (tolerant Citrus reshni Hort. ex Tan. and susceptible Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf.) have been submitted to salt stress. RNASeq was performed on both control and treated plants to analyze the implication of the species, the ploidy and their interaction in the transcriptomic response to salt stress.
