Analyses of the Pineapple Watercore Transcriptome

Abstract

Manuela Sarmento

Watercore is a pineapple physiological disorder that manifests as water-soaked tissue and fluid deposition in intercellular spaces. The pineapple industry in China is being hampered by this disorder, which has a negative impact on the quality of the fruit and shortens its shelf life. As a result, growers are losing a lot of money and the pineapple industry is being held back. Water core's molecular mechanism, on the other hand, is still a mystery. De novo RNA-sequence technology was used for the first time to conduct transcriptome analyses of water cored and normal pineapple fruits for the purpose of elucidating the molecular mechanism of pineapple water core. In the transcriptomes of normal and mildly water cored fruits, respectively, high-quality reads of 46.66 M were found. After filtering the initial data, clean reads of 45.50 and 42.79 M were obtained. In subsequent pineapple water core research, these genes will be useful resources.
