De novo transcriptome and tissue specific expression analysis of genes associated with biosynthesis of secondary metabolites in Operculina turpethum (L.)

Abstract This study reported the first-ever de novo transcriptome analysis of Operculina turpethum, a high valued endangered medicinal plant, using the Illumina HiSeq 2500 platform. The de novo assembly generated a total of 64,259 unigenes and 20,870 CDS (coding sequence) with a mean length of 449 b...
