Eggplant Transcriptomic Landscapes of Tissue-Specific Color Transition

Federica De Marchi published transcriptomic data on May 28, 2026. The dataset contains results from an integrated analysis of mRNAs, lncRNAs, and alternative splicing events in eggplant fruit peel and flower corolla, focusing on anthocyanin biosynthesis. It includes computational predictions of 4,126 lncRNAs and 34,745 novel transcript isoforms.

Use Cases

• Identify candidate long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) involved in tissue-specific gene regulation based on the 4,126 predicted lncRNAs.
• Analyze alternative splicing events linked to anthocyanin biosynthesis based on the 34,745 novel transcript isoforms.
• Construct tissue-specific regulatory network models for pigment accumulation based on integrated mRNA, lncRNA, and AS event data.
• Compare transcriptional landscapes between fruit peel and flower corolla tissues during color transition.

Strengths

• Dataset includes specific counts of predicted features: 4,126 lncRNAs and 34,745 novel transcript isoforms.
• Analysis is integrated across multiple data types: mRNAs, lncRNAs, and alternative splicing events.
• Data is derived from a PacBio assembly of the 'Black Beauty' eggplant cultivar genome, suggesting a high-quality reference.

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 (35.3 KB), indicating it likely contains summary results rather than raw sequencing data.
