RNA-seq datasets of field soybean cultures conditioned by Elice16Indures® biostimulator

Abstract

The herbal drug-containing plant conditioner Elice16Indures® may help elicit plant immune responses in field dicotyledonous cultures. Application of this conditioner is also allowed in organic farming and recommended its drone spraying application in small doses. In this way, even distribution and better yields may be reached leading to economical and safe plant growing. The high protein content soy is an important food both in animal and human aspects which ecological cultivation is gaining prominence over GMO technology in the European Union. We present RNA-seq datasets of control and Elice16Indures treated soybean plants cultivated in field conditions from 01/05/2020 to 20/07/2020. For RNA seq experiments six samples were collected from vegetative tissues two times during the vegetation cycle: before and in flowering after 48 h of drone exposure. The 86 bp long Illumina NextSeq 550 reads were preprocessed and deposited in the NCBI SRA database. De novo assembly of combined read sets was performed and transcripts were deposited in the NCBI TSA database. Data of functional analysis of annotated transcripts are presented. The SRA and TSA datasets are under the Bioproject accession PRJNA778970. The presented datasets may help new strategies of ecological production of soy.
