Project name: Glycine max

Description: Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal for organisms. It can accumulate in plants and transmit to human bodies via food chain. Soybean supplies us with protein and oil, and is of great economic value worldwide. Cd poses a serious threat to soybean develop-ment, especially for root growth. Some soybean cultivars represent resistant symptoms to Cd-induced root inhibition under Cd stress, however, the genes and potential mechanisms are not fully understood. We optimized RNA-seq to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in Cd sensitive (KUAI) and tolerant (KAIYU) soybean roots, and compared the DEGs involved in root resistance to Cd stress.

Data type: transcriptome
