RNA-seq data obtained from head and fat body tissue of female Nicrophorus vespilloides beetles during a solitary phase and three distinct brood care phases.
We performed a comprehensive transcriptome analysis of the subsocial burying beetle Nicrophorus vespilloides. RNA-seq data obtained from head and fat body tissues of females were analyzed to examine changes in gene expression associated to a solitary phase and three distinct social phases: (i) early pre-hatching care, (ii) late pre-hatching care and (iii) post-hatching care.
