Oligo-dT Anchored cDNA SCoT: An Innovative Approach for Deciphering Fusarium Wilt Resistance-Related Differential Gene Expression in Chickpea
摘要
The cDNA start codon targeted marker (cDNA-SCoT) methodology is a unique, simple, quick, and efficient method for investigating differential gene expression. The differentially expressed fragments (DEFs) in resistant and susceptible cultivars were identified using cDNA-SCoT profiling. Sanger sequencing and the nBLAST homology search program were used to characterize the functional properties of DEFs. As a result, this methodology is innovative and would be utilized in future studies to identify potential functional genes, which can then be used in marker creation, marker-assisted selection, and uncovering the regulatory role of the relevant genes.
