Abstract:
The yellowstripe goby (Mugilogobius chulae) is an ideal experimental marine fish model in the field of marine environmental toxicology. To clarify the mechanisms of molecular toxicity of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) in standard laboratory fish, we carried out a genome-wide analysis of transcriptional profiles in M. chulae by RNA sequencing. A total of 47,979 unigenes were assembled de novo, with N50 lengths of 1658 bp. These results provide an important resource for future studies on the effects of BaP on marine animals.
