The rice blast (fungal pathogen: Magnaporthe oryzae and host: Oryza sativa) is one of the most important model pathosystems for understanding plant-microbe interactions. Although both genome sequences were published as first cases pathogen host, only a few in planta transcriptome data during infection are available. Due to technical difficulties, previously reported fungal not highly qualified comprehensively profile expression genes infection. Here, we report high-quality transcriptomes M. using sheath infection-based RNA sequencing approach. This comprehensive profiling its host will provide better platform interactions at genomic level serve valuable resource research community.
