The soil-borne ascomycete Verticillium dahliae which causes wilt disease in many important crops results a severe reduction in crop yield and quality. During infection, the V.dahliae will secrete a lot of secondary metabolites which act as toxic factors to promote the infection process. However, the mechanism underlying how V.dahliae secondary metabolites regulate cotton infection remains largely unexplored. BRE1 is a highly conserved ubiquitin ligase (E3) enzymes and regulate expression of specific genes related to the production of secondary metabolites. To get an insight into the genes regulated by VdBre1, the comparative transcriptomic analysis was conducted between VdBre1 deletion mutant and the wild type V592. The conidia of wilde type and mutant were collected and total RNA was extracted using fungal RNA kit, sequencing was performed on an BGISEQ-500 platform. Overall design: Conidia mRNA profiles of V. dahliae and △VdBre1 mutant were generated by sequencing, using BGISEQ-500 platform Less...
