Popis: Banana is a climacteric fruit and its ripening process is greatly influenced by presence of ethylene. This physiological climacteric characteristic of banana fruit leads to a fast ripening and a short shelf-life. Application of edible coating such as chitosan aims to prolong fruit shelf life. The knowledge on gene expression will help to understand the fruit ripening process itself and chitosan effect on global gene expression. Global gene expression data of chitosan treated and control of Cavendish banana during fruit ripening were provided. Total RNA was isolated from banana pulp for differential gene expression analysis. The RNA-sequencing generated ranged from 16,155,947 to 23,587,110 total reads, with 75.8%–83.8% of reads were mapped against the genome reference. In total, 33,797–35,944 transcripts were detected. The transcriptomics data discussed in this publication are accessible through NCBI's Gene Expression Omnibus with GEO Series accession number GSE139457. These data provide information to identify candidate genes involved in fruit ripening in response to chitosan coating to design a better banana postharvest management.
