RNA-Seq analysis using de novo transcriptome assembly as a reference for the salmon louse Caligus rogercresseyi.
Despite the economic and environmental impacts that sea lice infestations have on salmon farming worldwide, genomic data generated by high-throughput transcriptome sequencing for different developmental stages, sexes, and strains of sea lice is still limited or unknown.In this study, RNA-seq analysis was performed using de novo transcriptome assemb
