Abstract excerpt
In order to learn the sex determination and differentiation process in shrimp, we performed sex-specific transcriptome sequencing of the Zoea I larvae in Litopenaeus vannamei (L. vannamei) using a DNA/RNA co-extraction method. The sex-specific genes and the sex-linked SNPs were identified. De novo assembly of all the clean reads generated 41,270 unigenes with an average length of 1026 bp and an N50 of 1922 bp. A...
