Dendrobium officinale Raw sequence reads
This study presents the raw sequence reads generated from the transcriptome of the valuable medicinal orchid, Dendrobium officinale(Tiepi Shihu). The primary goal of this sequencing effort is to establish a foundational genomic resource to facilitate the investigation of the genetic basis underlying the biosynthesis of its active medicinal compounds, such as polysaccharides and dendrobine. These data will enable comprehensive genomic analyses, including gene discovery, phylogenetic studies, and the elucidation of metabolic pathways. The availability of this raw sequencing data is crucial for advancing our understanding of this endangered species, with potential applications in its conservation, quality control of herbal products, and the future biotechnological production of its key bioactive metabolites.
