contents Comparative Transcriptomic Analysis for Identification of Environmental-Responsive Genes in Seven Species of Threadfin Breams (). Dang, Zhaoke Wu, Qiaer Zhou, Yanbo Wang, Liangming Liu, Yan Yang, Changping Liu, Manting Xie, Qijian Chen, Cheng Ma, Shengwei Shan, Binbin Animals Phylogeny Transcriptome Gene Expression Profiling Fishes Molecular Sequence Annotation Fish Proteins DNA Barcoding, Taxonomic Members of the genus are economically important fish species distributed in the tropical and subtropical Indo-West Pacific region. The majority of species in this genus inhabit waters with sandy-muddy substrates on the continental shelf, although different species are found at slightly varying water depths. In this study, we sequenced seven species within the genus after identifying the specimens using complementary morphological analysis and DNA barcoding. Each species yielded over 40,000,000 clean reads, totaling over 300,000,000 clean reads across the seven species. A total of 276,389 unigenes were obtained after de novo assembly and a total of 168,010 (60.79%) unigenes were annotated in the protein database. The comprehensive functional annotation based on the KOG, GO, and KEGG databases revealed that these unigenes are mainly associated with numerous physiological, metabolic, and molecular processes, and that the seven species exhibit similarity in these aspects. By constructing a phylogenetic tree and conducting divergence time analysis, we found that and diverged most recently, approximately during the Neogene Period (14.9 Mya). Compared with other species, and are distributed in deeper water layers. Therefore, we conducted selection pressure analysis using these two species as the foreground branches and identified several environmental-responsive genes. The results indicate that genes such as , , ISP2, Hip, , , , , , exhibit faster evolutionary rates during long-term adaptation to deep-water environments. Specifically, these genes are considered to be associated with adaptation to aquatic osmoregulation, temperature fluctuations, and skeletal development. This comprehensive analysis provides valuable insights into the evolutionary biology and environmental adaptability of threadfin breams, contributing to the conservation and sustainable management of these species.
