Full-length transcriptome analysis of the bloom-forming dinoflagellate Akashiwo sanguinea by single-molecule real-time sequencing.

ABSTRACT: The dinoflagellate Akashiwo sanguinea is a harmful algal species and commonly observed in estuarine and coastal waters around the world. Harmful algal blooms (HABs) caused by this species lead to serious environmental impacts in the coastal waters of China since 1998 followed by huge economic losses. However, the full-length transcriptome information of A. sanguinea is still not fully explored, which hampers basic genetic and functional studies. Herein, single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing technology was performed to characterize the full-length transcript in A. sanguinea. Totally, 83.03 Gb SMRT sequencing clean reads were generated, 983,960 circular consensus sequences (CCS) with average lengths of 3,061 bp were obtained, and 81.71% (804,016) of CCS were full-l
