Tomato Transcriptome Analysis of Nematode Resistance in Two Cultivars

RNA sequencing data from 2026 compares root samples of resistant 'Jinpeng M6' and susceptible 'Jinpeng No.1' tomato cultivars during Meloidogyne incognita infection. The dataset contains 9,673 differentially expressed genes identified through comparative transcriptome analysis, validated by qRT-PCR. Author Zhao Mengxin published the data on figshare under a CC-BY-4.0 license.

Use Cases

• Identify candidate resistance genes based on differentially expressed gene profiles.
• 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 for 12 selected genes mentioned in the study.

Strengths

• Includes 9,673 differentially expressed genes identified from RNA-seq.
• Expression patterns for 12 selected DEGs were validated with qRT-PCR.
• Data is published under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license.

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 small at 11.3 KB, indicating limited scope.
