Abstract
The sequences of all different RNA transcripts present in a cell or tissue that are related to the gene expression and its functional control represent what it is called a transcriptome. The transcripts vary between cells, tissues, ontogenetic and environmental conditions, and the knowledge that can be gained through them is of a solid relevance for genetic applications in aquaculture. Some of the techniques used in transcriptome studies, such as microarrays, are being replaced for next-generation sequencing approaches. RNA-seq emerges as a new possibility for the transcriptome complexity analysis as well as for the candidate genes and polymorphisms identification of penaeid species. Thus, it may also help to understand the determination of complex traits mechanisms and genetic improvement of stocks. In this review, it is first introduced an overview of transcriptome analysis by RNA-seq, followed by a discussion of how this approach may be applied in genetic progress within penaeid stocks.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 03 October 2014.
All research outputs
#7,445,571
of 22,761,738 outputs
Outputs from Frontiers in Genetics
#2,427
of 11,758 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#75,883
of 236,621 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Frontiers in Genetics
#54
of 130 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,761,738 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 44th percentile – i.e., 44% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 11,758 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.7. This one has done well, scoring higher than 78% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 236,621 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 56% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 130 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 56% of its contemporaries.
