Data set for transcriptome analysis of pituitary galnd in cattle breeds

Transcriptome data presented in this article is associated with the research article entitled “Single nucleotide polymorphism discovery in bovine pituitary gland using RNA-seq technology” published in PLOS One [1]. Herein, we provide raw and analysed RNA-seq data of pituitary gland tissues from three cattle breeds, viz., Polish-HF, Polish Red and Hereford cattle breeds. Bioinformatics pipelines of high-quality RNA-seq data includes the FastQC tools for quality controls, Trimmomatic cutadapt tools for trimming RNA-seq data, and BWA version 0.7.5-r404 for mapping and alignment to the Bos taurus reference genome, SAMtools for SNPs identifications in bovine pituitary gland transcriptome. Raw FASTq files for the RNA-seq libraries of bovine pituitary gland were deposited in the NCBI Sequence Read Archive (SRA) and have been assigned BioProject accession PRJNA312148

Data set for transcriptome analysis of liver in cattle breeds

Transcriptome analysis using high-throughput next-generation sequencing (HT-NGS) technology provides the capability to understand global gene expression variations through a wide range of tissue samples in domesticated animals. We provide raw and analysed data for transcriptomic analysis of liver tissues from Polish-HF, Polish Red and Hereford cattle breeds, obtained by RNA-seq. High-quality sequencing data have been analysed using our bioinformatics pipeline which consists of FastQC for quality controls, Trimmomatic for trimming, and BWA version 0.7.5-r404 for alignment to the Bos taurus reference genome, SAMtools for SNPs identifications, and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) identification using DEseq and edgeR pipelines after adjustment for false-discovery rate (FDR) with adjusted two-sided p values <0.01 and the trimmed mean of M values (TMM) normalisation method. The data accompanying the published manuscript describing the SNPs and DEGs identification in the bovine liver transcriptome of cattle breeds. Raw FASTq files for the RNA-seq libraries are deposited in the NCBI Sequence Read Archive (SRA) and have been assigned BioProject accession PRJNA312148. Raw and processed RNA-seq data were deposited and made publicly available on the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO; GSE114233)
