Transcriptome response of Rosa roxburghii fruit to top-rot disease
Top-rot disease (TRD) in Rosa roxburghii fruit is caused by Colletotrichum fructicola. TRD has emerged as a significant concern due to its frequent occurrence and cause of substantial economic losses. To understand the transcriptome response to TRD infection and identify candidate genes involved in TRD resistance, four critical time points (0, 24, 72, and 120 hpi) fruit tissues inoculated with TRD pathogen were selected for RNA-seq.
