Changes in the biochemical and gene expression profiles of Palaemon carinicauda during ovarian development

Exopalaemon carinicauda is an economically significant shrimp species in China. However, data on changes in gene expression profiles throughout the ovarian development cycle of this species are lacking. In this study, transcriptome analysis was carried out to explore the key signaling pathways during development, especially from stage I to II and from stage IV to V.
