flavus, is the major quality and health problem delimiting the trade&#13;
and consumption of groundnut (Arachis hypogaea L.) worldwide.&#13;
Three types of aflatoxin resistance mechanisms namely, resistance&#13;
to in-vitro seed colonization (IVSC), pre-harvest aflatoxin&#13;
contamination (PAC) and aflatoxin production (AP) have been&#13;
reported in groundnut. Transcriptome sequencing approach was&#13;
used to study the differentially expressed genes that differ in-vitro&#13;
seed colonization (IVSC) in resistant (J 11) and susceptible&#13;
(JL 24) genotypes. A total of 1,344 million raw reads with an&#13;
average of 84 million reads per sample were generated from 16&#13;
libraries from four different stages of fungal infection. A total of&#13;
737.75 and 770.83 million reads were mapped on the progenitor&#13;
genomes- A subgenome (A. duranensis) and B subgenome (A.&#13;
ipaensis) of cultivated groundnut (A. hypogaea), respectively. In&#13;
groundnut, defense related genes like senescence associated&#13;
proteins, resveratrol synthase, seed linoleate 9s-lipoxygenases&#13;
(9s-LOX), pathogenesis related proteins, peroxidases, glutathione-&#13;
S-transferases, chalcone synthase, defensin and chitinases&#13;
were differentially expressed. In A. flavus, the genes involved&#13;
in growth and development of fungus, aflatoxin biosynthesis,&#13;
binding and transporter proteins were found to be induced in&#13;
compatible interaction. In addition to IVSC resistance, we have&#13;
also carried out transcriptome sequencing for PAC and AP resistance.&#13;
In summary, this study will provide greater insights on&#13;
the resistance mechanisms and discovery of candidate genes for&#13;
all the three mechanisms that can further be used as expression&#13;
markers in genomics-enabled aflatoxin resistance breeding.</mods:abstract><mods:classification authority="lcc">Groundnut</mods:classification><mods:classification authority="lcc">Plant Disease</mods:classification><mods:classification authority="lcc">Aflatoxins</mods:classification><mods:originInfo><mods:dateIssued encoding="iso8061">2017-02</mods:dateIssued></mods:originInfo><mods:genre>Conference or Workshop Item</mods:genre></mods:mods>
