The evolution of multi-gene families and metabolic pathways in the evening primroses (Oenothera: Onagraceae): A comparative transcriptomics approach

Abstract: The plant genus Oenothera has played an important role in the study of plant evolution of genomes and plant defense and reproduction. Here, we build on the 1kp transcriptomic dataset by creating 44 new transcriptomes and analyzing a total of 63 transcriptomes to present a large-scale comparative study across 29 Oenothera species. Our dataset included 30.4 million reads per individual and 2.3 million transcripts on average. We used this transcriptome resource to examine genome-wide evolutionary patterns and fun… Show more

“…However, for many types of biological studies complete genome assembly is not necessary, and the data on the sequence of expressed genes RNA products (transcriptome) is sufficient. These directions of research include (but not limited to) the search of genes involved in traits of interest and their functional validation [1,2], the investigation of the evolution of gene families and genetic networks [3,4], the search of horizontal gene transfer [5], phylogenetic and population genetic studies [6,7]. The availability of transcriptome sequences also facilitates genetic studies enabling the development of markers for genetic mapping [8,9] and design of guide RNA for genetic editing.…”
