Transcriptome analysis and candidate gene identification reveals insights into the molecular mechanisms of hypermelanosis in Chinese tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis)
2021
Abstract Blind-side hypermelanosis has emerged as a major concern in flatfish aquaculture worldwide, including tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis) in China. The causative gene and the molecular basis are still unclear. In this study, comparative transcriptome analyses were performed using different skin tissues of tongue sole: ocular-side normal (pigmented) skin, blind-side normal (non-pigmented) skin and blind-side hypermelanotic (pigmented) skin. Finally, 60 key hypermelanosis-related genes were mined, providing potential candidate gene resources involved in blind-side hypermelanosis. These genes were selected based on the log2(FoldChange) and false discovery rate (FDR) values (with corresponding P-Values
