De novo transcriptome assembly of a Chinese locoweed (Oxytropis ochrocephala) species provides insights into genes associated with drought, salinity and cold tolerance

Background: Locoweeds (toxic Oxytropis and Astraglus species), containing the toxic agent swainsonine, pose serious threats to animal husbandry on grasslands in both China and the US. Some locoweeds have evolved adaptations in order to resist various stress conditions such as drought, salt and cold....
