Abstract

Siberian sturgeon, Acipenser baerii, is a commercially valuable fish for flesh and caviar production and a threatened species. We produced transcriptomic data for ten tissues with relevance to puberty, reproduction, early development, growth and food intake. The data includes RNA-Seq read sets of brain, pituitary, anterior-kidney, kidney, stomach, liver, heart, embryonic, pre-larval, and immature gonad sequences. Tissues were collected from sex differentiated fish (17 to 42 months of age, 66 to 85 cm) RNA was extracted and sequenced. Our purpose is to facilitate fundamental studies of sturgeon physiology to wild and aquaculture populations management.

Biology Transcriptomics, physiology and aquaculture Raw RNA-Seq data and assembled reference transcriptome assembly Illumina MiSeq Illumina HiSeq 2500 Raw data and assembly information Tissues collected from immature fish: pituitary, anterior-kidney, kidney, stomach, liver, gonads Tissues collected from gametogenetic fish: brain Tissues collected from sex undifferentiated fish: embryonic, pre-larval Tissues sequenced in a pool: pituitary, testis, ovary, anterior kidney, kidney, heart, stomach, liver. The dataset will facilitate research on topics of interest in Siberian sturgeon aquaculture such as puberty, reproduction, growth, food intake, and immunology Insights into these processes will improve management of both wild and aquaculture populations. We present a novel Siberian sturgeon multi-tissue data set including brain, pituitary, gonadal, liver, stomach, kidney, anterior kidney, heart, embryonic, and pre-larval transcriptomes, with the goal of facilitating crucial research on topics of interest in sturgeon physiology, such as puberty, reproduction, growth, food intake, and in immunology.
