From Wikipedia ...

Arabidopsis thaliana, the thale cress, mouse-ear cress or arabidopsis, is a small flowering plant native to Eurasia and Africa. A. thaliana is considered a weed; it is found by roadsides and in disturbed land. A winter annual with a relatively short life cycle, A. thaliana is a popular model organism in plant biology and genetics. For a complex multicellular eukaryote, A. thaliana has a relatively small genome of approximately 135 megabase pairs (Mbp). It was the first plant to have its genome sequenced, and is a popular tool for understanding the molecular biology of many plant traits, including flower development and light sensing.

Data

We used Arabidopsis_thaliana.TAIR10.37.gff3 and Arabidopsis_thaliana.TAIR10.dna.toplevel.fa from ensembl as the reference genome.The Isoseq data downloaded from NCBI were under project SRP070062. We used TAPIS pipeline to process these raw data.

Summary

From Iso-Seq data, we found 16,137 transcripts, 93 novel genes and 16,684 Alternative Splicing events.
