Abstract
Indian coastline is bestowed with a rich diversity of molluscan species of which mussels belonging to the genus Perna (Family; Mytilidae)occupy a major position. Aquaculture importance of these species is globally recognized. They are extensively used as pollution indicatorsas they can accumulate contaminants at levels higher than that present in water. This property has made them valuable biomarkers ofenvironmental pollution. The scarcity in the genetic resources of this species is one of the major hindrances in its wide usage as abiomonitor. Here we sequenced the first transcriptome of Perna indica, collected from the southernmost part of Kerala coast, using NGSillumina HiSeq 2500 technology. The de novo assembly of Perna indica transcriptome generated 157203 contigs and 132641 non-redundantgenes with a minimum length of 201bp. The blast search and InterPro database scan resulted in assigning domains, ontology and pathwaymapping to ...
