Project description:The Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei), one of the most widely cultured shrimp species in the world, usually suffered from chilling stress in China. In order to reveal inner proteomics mechanism of chilling tolerance, we conducted a proteomic analysis on two contrasting shrimp cultivars, namely, chilling-tolerant GH2 and chilling-sensitive GH1 under normal temperature 28°C, chilling stress 16°C, and 16°C recovered to 28°C, respectively.
