Transcriptome and gene expression analysis in cold-acclimated guayule (Parthenium argentatum) rubber-producing tissue

► The first transcriptome of cold-acclimated guayule is described. ► All enzymes from both the MEV and MEP pathways were present. ► Isoprenoid pathway gene expression did not correlate with rubber synthesis rate. ► Gene expression levels for AOS and CPT were higher during the colder months.
