Project description:Piscine reovirus (PRV) is a causative agent of heart and skeletal muscle inflammation in Atlantic salmon, which is propagated in red blood cells (RBC). Here, transcriptome analyses of PRV infected erythrocytes showed strong and complex innate antiviral responses.
Project description:PD and HSMI are viral diseases that cause heavy damages in Atlantic salmon aquaculture. This study was performed to examine and compare the time-courses of transcriptome responses to the causative agents - salmon alphavirus (SAV) and piscine reovirus (PRV).
Project description:Spatial regulation analysis across multiple condition comparisons revealed distinct patterns of gene expression. We combined these transcriptome data with spatial CNS data to produce the spatio-transcripto map of the ganglia chain. The Hirudo Medicinalis set of transcripts generated here provides a resource for gene discovery and gene regulation within the nervous system. In addition, the strategy for de novo assembly of transcriptome data presented here may be helpful in other similar transcriptome studies. Examination of 3 different ganglia in 3 different leeches.
