Transcriptome sequencing on a time series of potato infected with Globodera pallida to explore the sex determination
We explored the sex determination of Globodera pallida. To do so, we grew cuttings of the potato cultivar Desiree on Gamborg B5 medium supplemented with either 1.5 g/L or 20 g/L sucrose. 14-day-old cuttings were inoculated with 100 G. pallida E400 Rookmaker juveniles. Infected root tissue was harvested at 1, 3, 6, and 9 dpi. Also, a subsample of the ppJ2 was kept for each batch. The experiment contains four time-separated batches. Transcriptome sequencing was performed by BGI Hong Kong. Two samples (B_4.2_1,5; B_4.3_1,5) were not taken along for sequencing because of a failed library prep.
