Project description:We sampled lake-type and riverine sockeye in the pristine natural habitats of Aniakchak National Monument and Preserve, Alaska USA.

Project description:We sequenced mRNA from brain samples of 20 captive Swainson's thrushes. 10 were from California, belonging to the coastal subspecies, and 10 were from Alaska, belonging to the inland subspecies.
Project description:Four captive bottlenose dolpins housed in Kona, Hawaii, were serially sampled at approximately monthly intervals over the course of one year, in order to establish baseline information on the content and variation of the dolphin blood transcriptome.
Project description:Whole blood was collected as part of monthly veterinary checkups of bottlenose dolphins housed at Dolphing Quest in Waikoloa, Hawaii, USA. Gene expression from 5 samples was analyzed for comparison to the blood transcriptome of the beluga whale.
