Yu et al. (2021) carried out a transcriptome study of Platycodon grandiflorus with the aim of identifying the genes involved in triterpenoid saponin biosynthesis. Using DNBSEQ™ platform technology, 96 differentially expressed genes related to this biosynthesis pathway were identified, and the accuracy of these data was validated by qr-PCR, demonstrating the efficacy of this platform.
