title: Transcriptome data of carp vertebrae
design: Total RNA was extracted from samples and quality was verified. RNA-seq libraries were prepared using standard Illumina TruSeq RNA library preparation protocol. Briefly, mRNA was purified and fragmented, followed by cDNA synthesis, end repair, adenylation, adapter ligation, and PCR amplification. The resulting libraries were quantified and sequenced on Illumina platform with paired-end reads.
