Tomato Transcriptome Analysis of Nematode Resistance in Two Cultivars

RNA sequencing data from root samples of resistant 'Jinpeng M6' and susceptible 'Jinpeng No.1' tomato cultivars infected with Meloidogyne incognita. The dataset contains 9,673 differentially expressed genes identified through comparative transcriptome analysis, validated by qRT-PCR. Author Zhao Mengxin published the dataset on figshare in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Identify candidate resistance genes based on differentially expressed gene patterns.
• Analyze cultivar-specific pathway responses based on KEGG enrichment results for 'Plant-pathogen interaction' and 'Plant hormone signal transduction'.
• Validate RNA-seq expression patterns using the qRT-PCR results described.
• Investigate the role of the phenylpropanoid biosynthesis pathway in nematode resistance as highlighted in the study.

Strengths

• Dataset includes 9,673 differentially expressed genes identified.
• Expression patterns of 12 selected DEGs were validated with qRT-PCR.
• Analysis includes KEGG pathway enrichment results for key biological processes.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The dataset is very small (275.0 B), suggesting it may be a summary table rather than raw sequence data.
