De novo transcriptomic characterization of Betta splendens for identifying sex-biased genes potentially involved in aggressive behavior modulation and EST-SSR maker development

Abstract: Betta splendens is not only a commercially important labyrinth fish but also a nice research model for understanding the biological underpinnings of aggressive behavior. However, the shortage of basic genetic resource severely inhibits investigations on the molecular mechanism in sexual dimorphism of aggressive behavior typicality, which are essential for further behavior-related studies. There is a lack of knowledge regarding the functional genes involved in aggression expression. The scarce marker resource a… Show more

“…More recently, physiological and neurological studies have been conducted to examine aggressive behaviors using B. splendens in combination with pharmacological treatments, and some important signaling molecules linked to aggression have been discovered, such as serotonin (5-HT) [24], dopamine [25], and GABA [26]. Additionally, a suite of genes linked to aggressiveness has been identified in different fish such as cichlid fish [27], zebrafish [28], and rainbow trout [29].…”
