Whole-Genome Transcript Expression Profiling Reveals Novel Insights into Transposon Genes and Non-Coding RNAs during Atlantic Salmon Seawater Adaptation.

ABSTRACT: The growing amount of genome information and transcriptomes data available allows for a better understanding of biological processes. However, analysis of complex transcriptomic experimental designs involving different conditions, tissues, or times is relevant. This study proposes a novel approach to analyze complex data sets combining transcriptomes and miRNAs at the chromosome-level genome. Atlantic salmon smolts were transferred to seawater under two strategies: (i) fish group exposed to gradual salinity changes (GSC) and (ii) fish group exposed to a salinity shock (SS). Gills, intestine, and head kidney samples were used for total RNA extraction, followed by mRNA and small RNA illumina sequencing. Different expression patterns among the tissues and treatments were observed through a wh
