De novo transcriptomics and its use in non-model organisms
Čalounová, Tereza ; Pluskal, Tomáš (advisor) ; Svatoňová, Petra (referee)
The rise of second generation sequencing enabled the study of non-model organisms. Without the requirement of having a reference genome, de novo transcriptomics allows the study of functional elements of their genomes. That way, the great complexity of non-model organisms can be explored. This thesis gives a comprehensive overview of the de novo transcriptomics experiment workflow from a bioinformatics perspective. The emphasis was placed on both theoretical background and practical approaches. This work also highlights new methods in de novo transcriptomics which may start to dominate in the near future. The practical part of the work presents transXpress - a de novo transcriptome assembly and annotation pipeline. Its use is demonstrated on a non-model plant long pepper (Piper longum) with medicinal potential. Keywords: transcriptomics, de novo transcriptomics, transcriptome, RNA-Seq, non-model organism, assembly
