Brassica napus Transcriptome or Gene expression
Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.), a vital source of vegetable oils and protein-rich meals globally, has limited resilience to thrive under drought conditions. In this study, we employed high-throughput transcript profiling (RNA-seq) and chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) to systematically investigate changes in genomic transcription and histone methylation, focusing on histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation (H3K4me3) and histone H3 tri-methylated lysine 27 (H3K27me3) marks in rapeseed treated with PEG (polyethylene glycol) to simulate drought conditions.
