Transcriptome Profiling Reveals a Divergent Adaptive Response to Hyper- and Hypo-Salinity in the Yellow Drum, Nibea albiflora.

ABSTRACT: The yellow drum (Nibea albiflora) is an important marine economic fish that is widely distributed in the coastal waters of the Northwest Pacific. In order to understand the molecular regulatory mechanism of the yellow drum under salinity stress, in the present study, transcriptome analysis was performed under gradients with six salinities (10, 15, 20, 25, 30, and 35 psu). Compared to 25 psu, 907, 1109, 1309, 18, and 243 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were obtained under 10, 15, 20, 30, and 35 psu salinities, respectively. The differential gene expression was further validated by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). The results of the tendency analysis showed that all DEGs of the yellow drum under salinity fluctuation were mainly divided into three expression trends. Gene Ontolo
