RNA-seq of Temora longicornis
Zooplankton were collected with the research vessel (RV) Simon Stevin from the coastal waters near Ostend (Belgium), North Sea, NO Atlantic Ocean on several occasions in 2018. Copepods were collected using a WP2 net (200 m mesh size). Adult, live T. longicornis individuals were picked out with a Pasteur pipette and specimens were immediately stored in Invitrogen RNAlater Stabilization Solution, at a temperature of 4 C, until they could be transported to the laboratory for RNA extraction.
