PscOA: A Plant scRNA-seq Marker Gene Database for Enhanced Cellular Transcriptome Understanding

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) enables high-resolution transcriptome analysis, enabling the study of cellular heterogeneity beyond bulk transcriptomics. However, plant science lags animal science in the field largely due to limited sssssssssmarker genes. This study developed PscOA (http://sdau.biodb.com.cn/pscoa/), a plant scRNA-seq marker gene database with 39 347 marker genes. PscOA integrates BLAST for homology-based marker gene mining, and SCSA for cell type annotation, complemented...
