Comprehensive regulatory networks for tomato organ development based on the genome and RNAome of microTom tomato

Abstract MicroTom tomato has a short growth cycle and high transformation efficiency, is prospective model plant for studying organ development, metabolism, plant-microbe interactions. Here, with newly assembled reference genome this cultivar abundant RNA-seq data derived from tissues of different organs/developmental stages/treatments, we constructed multiple gene co-expression networks, which will provide valuable clues the identification important genes involved in diverse regulatory pathways during growth, e.g., arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis fruit development. Additionally, non-coding RNAs, including miRNAs, lncRNAs circRNAs were also identified, together their potential targets. Interacting networks between types RNAs (miRNA-lncRNA), (miRNA-mRNA lncRNA-mRNA) as well. Our results information study differentiation development fruit. Lastly, established database (http://eplant.njau.edu.cn/microTomBase/) genomic transcriptomic data, well details interacting on microTom, should be great value to those who wants adopt microTom research.
