Comparison of the expression profiles of selected genes as determined by RNA-Seq (Illumina Hiseq2500^TM sequencing) and qRT-PCR.

<p>The letter “A” and “B” in the RNA-Seq and qRT-PCR mean the comparison of expression profiles of selected genes between control and moribund samples (the correlation coefficient was 0.92), the comparison of expression profiles of selected genes between control and survived samples (the correlation coefficient was 0.95), respectively. Target gene abbreviations are as follows: TSPAN8 –TSPAN8, DPAGT1 –UDP-N-acetylglucosamine—dolichyl-phosphate N-acetylglucosaminephosphotransferase, Gag-pol –Gag-Pol polyprotein, ARSB–arylsulfatase B, MKK2 –MAP kinase-activated protein kinase 2, PDK–pyruvate dehydrogenase (acetyl-transferring) kinase, ILK–integrin-linked protein kinase, AP–acid phosphatase, ERI3 –ERI1 exoribonuclease 3, ZMYM1 –zinc finger MYM-type protein 1. Error bars indicated standard deviations of averages from three replicates.
