This is a set of scripts used to analyse short-read illuminated transcriptome data from hundreds of mRNAseq samples across multiple species and radiations for cichlid fishes from the East African Great lakes. The analysis leverages short-read mRNA-seq to assemble a super-annotation of gene isoforms that can be used to conduct differential splicing analysis at the isoform level.
The manuscripts that used this pipeline are as follows:
Singh et al 2025 parallel lakes analysis (in submisison); Duenser, Singh et al 2025 lake victoria ontogenetic analysis (in review ProcB); Singh et al red-yellow carotenoid based coloration (in revision MolEcol) Singh et al in prep meta-analysis of all available transcriptomes;
