Project description:We performed extensive transcriptome analysis of the tiger pufferfish (Takifugu rubripes) using the next-generation sequencer SOLiD III, and profiled millions of small RNA sequences in somatic tissues and gonads, as well as identifying thousands of miRNAs. The number of miRNAs identified was the highest in fish species reported to date. We also report highly variable isomiR features.
Project description:In this research, we used RNA-sequencing technology to detect genome-wide differentially expressed genes in spleen and gill of Vibrio harveyi -infected Takifugu rubripes.This high-throughput sequencing could help us to understand new mechanisms of action of V. harveyi induced aquaculture fish disease.
