Whole-brain RNA sequencing of threespined stickleback males from predator communities with and without invasive northern pike
Whole-brain RNA sequencing was performed on adult male threespine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus) collected from southcentral Alaska lakes containing either native predators only or native predators and invasive northern pike (Esox lucius). The goal is to examine how predator community composition is associated with whole-brain gene expression underlying paternal care behavior.
