Project description:Sea cucumber, Apostichopus japonicus is a very important species for aquaculture, and its behavior and physiology can respond to the initial change in salinity. It is important to understand the molecular responses of A. japonicus when exposed to ambient changes in salinity In this study, RNA-seq provided a general overview of the gene expression profiles of the intestine of A. japonicus exposed to high salinity (SD40), normal salinity (SD30) and low salinity (SD20) environment.
Project description:The sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus is a deposit-feeder and vital for marine benthic ecosystems. Hypoxia lasting for several days can lead to massive mortality in A. japonicus. It is important to understand the molecular responses of A. japonicus when exposed to acute changes in DO concentration. In the present study, RNA-seq provided a general overview of the gene expression profiles of the respiratory tree of A. japonicus exposed to dissolved oxygen (DO) of 8 mg/L (DO8), 4 mg/L (DO4) and 2 mg/L (DO2) conditions.
Project description:RNA-seq provided a general overview of the gene expression profiles of the body walls of A. japonicus exposed to strong light (“light”), normal light (“control”) and fully dark (“dark”) environment.
Project description:To identify the regulatory targets of the R2R3-Myb transcription factor, LjMyb14, the gene was constitutively over-expressed in Lotus japonicus under the Lotus ubiquitin promoter. The gene expression levels of three biological replicates of the Lotus japonicus (MG20) were averaged and compared to the the gene expression levels of three independent lines of Lotus japonicus japonicus constituitively over expressing LjMyb14 using the Lotus ubiquitin promoter.
