(Submitter supplied) Two Euphorbiaceae oil trees, Vernicia and Jatropha, were chosen to make a comparative transcriptomic study, with a focus on the differential oil accumulation process. Transcriptome sequencing was conducted with seeds at the initial- and fast- stage of oil accumulation from both.

(Submitter supplied) To further elucidate the molecular mechanism underling sex determination at the divergence stage of male and female flowers, the comparative transcriptome analysis was performed. In total, 56,065 unigenes were generated 24,567 transcripts were identified. Among 608 differential expression genes (DEGs), 310 DEGs showed significant expression in males and 298 DEGs in females. The data showed that the sexual dimorphism of female flowers was affected by jasmonic acid, transcription factors and some genes related with activity of floral meristem, which were considered as the candidate sex determination genes. more...

(Submitter supplied) Tung oil, the major product of tung tree (Vernicia fordii) seeds, is one of the highest quality oils for industrial applications and has been considered to the production of biodiesel. Because of the poor agronomical traits of this crop, efforts have been made to breed tung tree for higher fruit yield and for modification of oil properties to be used as biodiesel, or to engineer higher yielding plants to produce tung oil. more...

(Submitter supplied) Background: Vernicia fordii (Tung oil tree) is a popular tree for biodiesel production in China. Unfortunately, the devastating Fusarium wilt disease caused great losses in production. Its sister species (Vernicia montana) was shown resistant to this pathogen. Vernicia fordii and Vernicia montana are main Vernicia species. V. fordii owns superior oil and agronomic traits, but susceptible to tung wilt disease, while V. more...

(Submitter supplied) The tung (Vernicia fordii) oil is a valuable industrial oil and has been considered to the production of biodiesel. Because of the poor agronomic traits of this crop, efforts have been made to transfer genes related to the production of its oil to higher yielding plants. However, the mechanisms highlighting gene expression in this plant is poorly understood. MicroRNAs are endogenously encoded small RNAs that play a key role in diverse plant biological processes. more...
