De novo transcriptome assembly for desiccation tolerance in intertidal seaweed species Ulva lactuca
This study aimed at identification of genetic regulations for desiccation tolerance in intertidal seaweed species Ulva lactuca most commonly experienced phenomenon of intertidal communities. Overall design: The algal thalli were collected and acclamatised to laboratory. The experiments were designed for desiccation for different durations at a moisture condition of 20%. The thalli were desiccated for 24 h, 36 h and 72 h and investigated for transcriptomics by RNA-seq. Differential expression of genes determine the genetic regulations for desiccation tolerance in this lower group of aquatic plants. Please note that the current study represents the re-analysis of the GSE97769 samples (GSM2577150, GSM2577148, GSM2577151, GSM2577153) based on a different assembly.
