RNA seq of Apis mellifera: New Zealand- Adults
Total RNA was extracted from honey bee workers and DNase treated. RNA was subject to a ribosome depletion step (Ribo-Zero-Gold Human/Mouse/Rat) prior to preparation of Illumina TruSeq whole transcriptome paired-end libraries according to manufacturer’s instructions. Libraries were run on an Illumina HiSeq2000, 100bp paired-end sequencing.
