Application of in-house virtual protein database performed in genomic-proteomic combined research on heavy-metal stressed onion roots
Objectives To establish an in-house virtual protein database that can be employed in proteomic research on non-model plants. Results A total of 87,430 unigenes were obtained through transcriptome sequencing from onion roots. Of these, 24,305 unigenes were annotated and their nucleotide sequences of coding regions were translated into amino acid sequences. The corresponding 24,305 amino acid sequen
