Transcriptomic insights into adaptive responses of green mutant of Neopyropia yezoensis to long-term high temperature
High temperature has a significant impact on growth and yield of Neopyropia yezoensis, and its effects are expected to increase in the near future due to global warming. Thus, understanding the high-temperature response of Neopyropia yezoensis and enhancing its ability to adapt to high temperature have become of critical importance to aquaculture development. However, the strategies of Neopyropia yezoensis to tolerate high temperature are poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the changes in transcriptome of green mutant of Neopyropia yezoensis under long-term high temperature to explore its response mechanism to high temperature. Our findings provide new insights into the adaptative mechanisms of Neopyropia yezoensis to high temperature environments, which could be helpful for improving the high temperature tolerance of Neopyropia yezoensis and other economic algae in the aquaculture industry.
