Sample GSM7429874 Query DataSets for GSM7429874
Status Public on Jul 01, 2023
Title female Poecilia latipinna 19, whole brain, Ff treatment
Sample type SRA
 
Source name whole brain
Organism Poecilia latipinna
Characteristics tissue: whole brain
preference behavior: Ff social context
Treatment protocol Sexually experienced P. latipinna females were collected from a semi-natural environment and socially isolated for two weeks to ensure sexual receptivity. Each female was subjected to short-term (30min) non-contact dichotomous choice assays. Females were randomly assigned to one of two social choice treatment groups (mate preference with male stimuli to female shoaling partner with female stimuli) without a non-social control. Focal females made preference decisions based on stimuli size differences in both treatments.Each focal female was acclimatized in an opaque cylinder for 5 minutes in the central neutral zone before being released. Following release from habituation, focal females were observed for 15 minutes and position and behavior in tank recorded. After the first 15 minutes of observations, focal females were brought back to the neutral area and placed in the opaque habituation cylinder while the stimulus fish were switched to opposite sides to ensure that our preference measures were directed at a specific fish rather than a location preference in our experimental tank. Following the stimulus switch, focal females were observed for an additional 15 minutes.
Growth protocol Fish were maintained in semi-natural on-campus outdoor ponds at the Brakenridgen Field Laboratory at the University of Texas, Austin
Extracted molecule total RNA
Extraction protocol Immediately following the 30-minute behavioral trial, focal females were immediately decapitated, whole brains were removed and individually immersed in RNAlater solution (Applied Biosystems, Carlsbad, CA, USA) at 4˚ Celsius with gentle shaking for 24 hours, then stored at -80 C (without RNAlater) for subsequent RNA profiling. 1-4 μg of total RNA were used as input for RNA library preparation and sequencing.
RNA libraries for RNA-seq were prepared using Illumina’s TruSeq mRNA Sample Prep Kit.

Data processing Libraries were demultiplexed using a custom python script. Raw 101 bp reads were trimmed to remove low quality base pairs (Phred quality score < 20), reads with few contiguous high-quality base pairs (fewer than 30 bp) using a python script.
python script (http://genomics-pubs.princeton.edu/prv/resources/scripts/TQSfastq.py)
Adapter sequences were trimmed using the program cutadapt (https://cutadapt.readthedocs.io/en/stable/).
To evaluate the quality of the trimmed reads, we ran FastQC (Andrew, 2010) using TACC (Texas Advanced Computing, The University of Texas at Austin).
Reads were pseudoaligned to the Sailfin molly Poecilia latipinna (assembly GCA_001443285.1, retrieved from Ensembl January 2019) with Kallisto (version 0.43.0) using the single-end reads option with a length of 100bp (-l 100), standard deviation of 20 (-s 20).
Assembly: GCA_001443285.1
