The cells were assigned to one of the three groups: control group, COL28 negative control group (COL28-NC group), and COL28 overexpression group (COL28-OE group). The extraction, library building, and sequencing of total RNA of cells were performed by Aimer Gene (Xiamen) Biotechnology Co., Ltd. TRIzol (Invitrogen) was employed to extract the total RNA from the samples, NanoDrop 2000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific) to evaluate the quality and concentration of the RNA, and QIAxcel advanced system (Qiagen, advanced) to assess RNA integrity. With the help of NEB NextUltra™ RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina (New England BioLabs, Inc., Ipswich, MA, USA), RNA-seq libraries were created under the recommendations of the manufacturer. Using the Illumina HiSeq 4000 instrument (Illumina, Inc., San Diego, CA, USA), the quality-checked libraries were sequenced, and paired-end reads were produced. Initial processing of the raw data in FASTQ format was done with an internal Perl script. By removing low-quality reads, ploy-N, and reads containing adapters, the clean reads were achieved. For the purpose of assessing the sequencing quality, the GC content and Q20 were determined. Utilizing star (for genome comparison), cufflinks (for expression analysis), and deseq2 (for differential expression), the obtained reads were analyzed [21 (link)].

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Total RNA was extracted from six hippocampal tissues from each group. The RNA concentration and purity in each sample were quantified using a NanoDrop ND-1000 spectrophotometer (NanoDrop, Wilmington, DE, USA). RNA integrity was assessed using an Agilent 2100 instrument, with RIN > 7.0. Approximately 5 μg of total RNA was used to deplete ribosomal RNA according to the instructions of the Ribo-Zero™ rRNA Removal Kit (Illumina, San Diego, USA), followed by cDNA library construction. Next, deep sequencing was performed with an Illumina HiSeq 4000 instrument (LC Bio, China) according to the vendor's recommended protocol. First, Cutadapt was used to remove the reads that contained adaptor contamination, low-quality bases and undetermined bases. Then, sequence quality was verified using FastQC. We used Bowtie2 and Hisat2 to map reads to the genome of the species. The remaining reads (unmapped reads) were still mapped to the genome using TopHat fusion. CIRCExplorer2 and CIRI were first used for the de novo assembly of the mapped reads to circular RNAs; then, back splicing reads were identified in unmapped reads using TopHat fusion. All samples generated unique circular RNAs. The differentially expressed circRNAs were selected with log2 (fold change) > 1 or log2 (fold change) < − 1 and with statistical significance (P value < 0.05) using the R package edgeR.

DNA was extracted as previously described [2 (link)]. Genomic DNA for each sample was quantified using the Qubit® 2.0 Fluorometer and was used for library preparation. DNA for intact samples was sheared using a Covaris E220 DNA sonicator to fragments of 500 bp. The DNA libraries for intact samples were made using the TruSeq Nano DNA Library Prep kit (Illumina), whereas the DNA libraries for degraded samples were made using Ovation Ultralow Library System V2 kit (Nugen), according to the manufacturers’ instructions. The amplified libraries were stored at − 20 °C. The pooled libraries were sequenced in an Illumina HiSeq4000 instrument (2 × 150 bp PE reads) (Illumina). A PhiX control library was applied to the sequencing run as a base balanced sequence for the calibration of the instrument so that each base type is captured during the entire run. Samples AF22, AF26 and AF36 were additionally sequenced and scaffolded by PacBio RS II platform (Pacific Biosciences, CA, USA) using a SMRT library. Genomic DNA from the P. vivax samples was extracted from filter paper as previously described [46 (link)].

CUT&Tag assay was performed as per literature.49 Briefly, 100,000 cells were harvested, washed and mixed with activated concanavalin A‐coated magnetic beads (Bangs Laboratories) at room temperature for 15 min. The mix was resuspended in 100 μl DIG‐wash buffer consisting of 2‐mM EDTA and primary antibody (1:50 dilution) and incubated overnight at 4℃. The secondary antibody was added to the cells at a 1:50 dilution and incubated at room temperature for about 1 h. After washing, 100 μl of pA‐Tn5 adapter complex (∼40 nM) was added into the cells and incubated at room temperature for about 1 h. After washing, the cells were resuspended in Tagmentation buffer (50 μl) and incubated at 37°C for 1 h. Then, proteinase K treatment was used at 55°C for 30 min to stop the tagmentation and then at 70°C for 20 min to inactivate proteinase K. DNA was then extracted with AMPure XP beads (Beckham Counter) and eluted. For PCR, the following thermocycler programme was used: 72°C for 5 min, 98°C for 30 s, 14 cycles of 98°C for 10 s and 63°C for 30 s, final extension at 72°C for 1 min, and hold at 8°C. Pooled libraries were purified with 1.1× AMPure XP beads. Paired‐end Illumina sequencing was carried out on a HiSeq 4000 instrument (Illumina).

Exome Capture Sequencing of Conifer Genomes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Due to the substantial size and complexity of conifer genomes, exome sequence capture is the preferred genotyping method for the taxon (Lind et al., 2022 (link)). We designed our capture probes based on previous Pinus contorta exome capture probes (Suren et al., 2016 (link)) and removed all probes which failed to effectively capture the target sequences. In addition, we included probes corresponding to previously described pathogen response genes (Lu et al., 2021 (link)), filtering out those which targeted exon sequences of less than 100 base pairs (bp). We then submitted our probe sequences to Roche NimbleGen for Custom SeqCapEZ probe design. We achieved a final capture space of ~44 Mbp.
Following DNA extraction and probe design, approximately 100 ng of DNA from each sample was used to construct a barcoded library (Kapa, Dual‐Indexed Adapter Kit). Sequence capture was performed following the SeqCap EZ HyperCap Workflow User's Guide Version 2.0 (Roche Sequencing Solutions, Inc.). The enriched capture libraries were then multiplexed and sequenced in four lanes, with 23–30 libraries per lane, on an Illumina HiSeq4000 instrument at the Centre d'expertise et de services Génome Québec, Montreal, Canada, resulting in 351 Gbp of 150‐bp paired‐end reads.
