Transcriptome datasets of salt-stressed tomato plants treated with zinc oxide nanoparticles.

Salinity diminishes agricultural productivity and quality, resulting in overall economic losses on a worldwide scale. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) have been found to enhance plant physiological and metabolic processes, as well as increase overall resilience to abiotic stressors. A research study was undertaken to assess the effects of foliar application of chemically produced ZnO-NPs on tomato plants, both in the presence and absence of a NaCl stressor. The datasets were obtained through the utilization of the shallow mRNA sequencing technology. Six datasets from the SRA were uploaded to NCBI. The aforementioned datasets encompass the Transcriptome Shotgun Assembly (TSA), the contigs that underwent blasting, mapping, and annotation from the pre-processed datasets, and the count table derived from the quantification of RNA-seq reads. All the aforementioned data is encompassed under the Mendeley database. Moving forward, the utilization of databases will facilitate the examination of modifications in plant biochemical reactions at the level of gene expression.
