A note on sampling chironomids for RNA-based studies of natural populations that retains critical morphological vouchers

Abstract: <p>The rapid uptake of transcriptomic approaches in freshwater ecology has seen a wealth of data produced concerning the ways in which organisms interact with their environment on a molecular level. Typically, such studies focus either at the community level and so don’t require species identifications, or on laboratory strains of known species identity or natural populations of large, easily identifiable taxa. For chironomids, impediments still exist for applying these technologies to natural population… Show more

“…Cultures were kept in separate rooms for each species, and adult males and females were collected between 3 and 5 days after emergence, killed by freezing and transferred immediately to RNA later for transport to the Molecular Genetics Research Facility (MGRF), QUT, Brisbane, Australia. One individual of each sex per species was pooled in a single replicated RNA extraction, conducted using a modified Trizol/Trisure RNA isolation as described in Krosch and Bryant (). RNA quality and quantity were assessed on an Agilent 2100 Bioanalyser (Agilent Technologies, USA) and an RNA 6000 Nano kit for total RNA.…”

“…Here, we utilise RNAseq data for C. draysoni obtained in a previous comparative transcriptomic study to explore patterns of differential expression within-species 40 (BioProject PRJNA350713, Transcriptome Shotgun Assembly Accession GFNI00000000, Short Read Archive Accessions in Table 1 ). Details of specimen collection, preservation, processing, RNA extraction, sequencing and read filtering are described in Krosch & Bryant (2015) 58 and Krosch (2017) 40 . Cleaned reads were assembled with Trinity Version 2014–04–13pl package 59 .…”
