RNA-seq of bamboo rats: liver
TRIzol (Invitrogen) was used for the extraction of total RNA. Quantified RNA was used for next generation library preparation. A total amount of 1.5 g RNA per sample was used as input material for the RNA sample preparations. Sequencing libraries were generated using NEBNext Ultra RNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina (NEB, USA) following manufacturers recommendations. Libraries were sequenced on a NovaSeq 6000 platform.
