PAINT - Plant Ant INTeraction

---

This repository contains all the code used to study the molecular groundplan of a plant-ant interaction.

Most of the code was generated for RNA-seq of the ant Crematogaster scutellaris and the plant Vicia faba.

Additionaly, metagenomics of leaf lamina and and proteomics of extra-floral nectar have been performed.

In here Vicia faba will be reverenced as vicia and Crematogaster scutellaris as crema.

Experiment reads have been deposited under the BioProject PRJNA758979.

A paper collection on the topic is available here.

A WIP manuscript is available here.
