Marine and freshwater three-spined stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) gene expression differences

ABSTRACT: In order to identify gene expression difference between marine and freshwater stickleback populations, we compared the transcriptomes of seven adult tissues (eye, gill, heart, hypothalumus, liver, pectoral muscle, telencephalon) between a marine population sampled from the mouth of the Little Campbell river in British Columbia (LITC) and a freshwater population (Fishtrap Creek, FTC) from northern Washington. For each population, the sampled individuals were the lab-reared progeny of a single pair of wild-caught parents. Four to five fish from each population were used as biological replicates for each of the seven tissues. For each population, the sampled individuals were the lab-reared progeny of a single pair of wild-caught parents. All fish were of similar age and were raised in the s
