CtChi19: Proteomic and Transcriptomic Data for Safflower Disease Resistance

Kang Ma published proteomic data from safflower infected by Alternaria alternata, identifying 490 and 921 differentially expressed proteins at 48 and 72 hours post-infection, respectively. The dataset integrates previously published transcriptomic data from Botrytis cinerea infection and focuses on the hub gene CtChi19, a chitinase. It was last updated on 2026-04-24.

Use Cases

• Identify candidate defense-related proteins in safflower based on proteomic analysis of fungal infection.
• Validate hub genes for disease resistance based on weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) results.
• Study the role of chitinase and β-1,3-glucanase activities in plant immune responses based on transgenic plant assays.

Strengths

• Proteomic analysis identified 490 and 921 differentially expressed proteins at two specific time points (48 hpi and 72 hpi).
• Data integrates both proteomic and previously published transcriptomic datasets for a multi-omics perspective.
• The dataset is focused on a specific, validated hub gene (CtChi19) with demonstrated functional impact on disease resistance.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
