Crassostrea virginica Raw sequence reads. Crassostrea virginica

Total RNA was isolated from the digestive gland and gill tissue of multiple C. virginica collected at sites along the Mississippi and Alabama coast of the Gulf of Mexico during the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Next-generation sequencing was performed to identify novel molecular biomarkers that may be useful for assessing the impact from hydrocarbon exposure.

本研究从2010年墨西哥湾深水地平线漏油事件期间，于墨西哥湾密西西比与阿拉巴马沿岸采样点采集的多只美洲牡蛎（C. virginica）的消化腺与鳃组织中分离得到总RNA。随后通过下一代测序技术，筛选可用于评估烃类暴露影响的新型分子生物标志物。
