RNA-seq of Laurencia pacifica: whole alga
Total RNA was extracted from a Laurencia pacifica specimen collected from the intertidal zone of La Jolla, California, USA, with the QIAGEN RNeasy Mini isolation kit. RNA quality was assessed by Agilent Bioanalyzer. A strand-specific mRNA library was prepared  from the total RNA with a TruSeq Stranded mRNA Library Prep Kit.
