| description |
To investigate mechanisms of metal tolerance in the gill, gut, kidney and liver of brown trout inhabiting the river Hayle (highly metal contaminated) compared with a control population from the river Teign.Overall design: mRNA samples were sequenced (Illumina GAII) from a pooled embryonic sample and 12 multiplexed samples of different tissues from the the Hayle and Teign populations (pooled from 5 and 10 individuals respectively) and used to generate a transcriptome assembly. Expression profiling was then conducted for the gill, gut, kidney and liver samples. Expression profiling results are presented in this Series. |
