Transcriptome data of ripe peel and pulp tissue of Grand Naine and Red banana cultivars.
The Grand Naine and Red Banana cultivars, both belonging to the AAA genome, exhibit notable differences in anthocyanin content in their ripe peel tissue. The transcriptomic data presented here pertains to the ripe peel and pulp tissues of these cultivars, highlighting the differential modulation of anthocyanin biosynthetic pathways. This dataset provides insights into the underlying genetic and molecular mechanisms that contribute to the variation in pigmentation and anthocyanin accumulation between the two banana cultivars.
