Impact of Cold Stress on Hepatopancreas Transcriptomic and Metabolomic in Red Swamp Crayfish <i>Procambarus clarkii</i>.

ABSTRACT: The aquaculture industry of red swamp crayfish (RSC), Procambarus clarkii, has grown significantly in recent decades due to increasing market demand. In China, low water temperatures, particularly during overwintering, pose a challenge, hindering the development of the RSC aquaculture industry in northern regions. Understanding the molecular mechanism of RSCs' responses to cold stress could be beneficial for its aquaculture practices. In this study, we exposed RSCs to 4 °C (T4) and 22 °C (T22: control) for 96 h. Transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses of hepatopancreas tissues were performed to identify key genes and metabolites that participate in cold stress response. A total of 787 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 198 differentially expressed metabolites (DEMs) were iden
