Abstract

The non-protein amino acid β-Aminobutyric acid (BABA) may trigger the immune responses of plants to various biotic and abiotic stresses leading to a long-term resistance (primed state). We present RNA-seq datasets of BABA - primed mono- and dicotyledonous plants, such as Arabidopsis thaliana and Hordeum vulgare. Illumina NextSeq550 sequencing were carried out after 72 h of BABA exposure. 87 bp long sequence reads were preprocessed of treated and control samples and deposited in the NCBI SRA database. Transcriptome datasets were de novo assembled of each species and deposited in the NCBI TSA database. These SRA and TSA depositions are under the Bioproject accession: PRJNA791573. Pairwise differential expression with enrichment analyses were performed and the most specific DEGs were determined and annotated in both plants.
