Abstract:The sea cucumber Holothuria leucospilota is an economically and ecologically important tropical species. Following development into juveniles, H. leucospilota undergoes a color change from white to black, involving a pigmentation process for over a period of several months. In this study, a combination of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and Next-Generation sequencing (NGS) were employed to investigate the changes in metabolomic and transcriptomic profiles during pigmentation in H. leu… Show more
