Objective_1: Chickpea Root Transcriptome Response to Fusarium Wilt Infection

A transcriptomic dataset analyzes the molecular response of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) roots to infection by the fungal pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris. The data, created by ANJALI CHAUDHARY and last updated in 2026, identifies 894, 867, and 535 differentially expressed genes at specific time points post-inoculation. It includes gene ontology and protein-protein interaction analyses revealing key defense mechanisms.

Use Cases

• Identify key defense-related genes based on the reported differentially expressed gene sets.
• Study temporal gene expression patterns based on the 7th and 12th day post-inoculation time points.
• Analyze protein-protein interaction networks based on the described hub-genes like CAZyme GH28.
• Investigate the role of specific transcription factors and R-genes based on mentions of ERF, KIN, RLP, and RLK classes.

Strengths

• Includes specific counts of differentially expressed genes (894, 867, and 535) for three comparison groups.
• Provides a time-course analysis with data from the 7th and 12th days post-inoculation.
• Analysis extends to gene ontology, protein-protein interaction networks, and specific gene classes.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is small (733.3 KB), indicating a limited scope of raw or processed data.
