title: RNA-seq of the bumble bee B. impatiens: whole larvae
design: The RNAseq libraries were prepared with Illumina's 'TruSeq Stranded mRNAseq Sample Prep kit' (Illumina). The libraries were pooled; quantitated by qPCR and sequenced on one SP lane for 101 cycles from one end of the fragments on a NovaSeq 6000. Fastq files were generated and demultiplexed with with the bcl2fastq v2.20 Conversion Software (Illumina). Adaptors have been trimmed from the 3'-end of the reads. Sequence of adaptors used to make the libraries (used the first 33nt for adaptor trimming).
