Mining the transcriptomes of four commercially important shellfish species for single nucleotide polymorphisms within biomineralization genes.

Abstract excerpt

Transcriptional profiling not only provides insights into patterns of gene expression, but also generates sequences that can be mined for molecular markers, which in turn can be used for population genetic studies. As part of a large-scale effort to better understand how commercially important European shellfish species may respond to ocean acidification, we therefore mined the transcriptomes of four species (the...
