Draft Assemblies for two strains of Daphnia pulicaria.
Molecular resources are important for implementing genomic approaches to address evolutionary and ecological questions. Two strains of the water flea species, D. pulicaria, were sequenced and reference-assembled against the genome of a sister species, Daphnia pulex. These two strains demonstrate a differential response to the toxic cyanobacteria, Microcystis aeruginosa.
