| Abstract |
The black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) is an aquatic animal with considerable economic importance. Poor reproductive maturation in captivity impedes sustainable aquaculture production of this species. This study aims to provide transcriptomic information on reproductive organs using 454 pyrosequencing technology. The transcriptome analysis of ovaries and testes revealed 41,136 transcripts with 20,192 contigs. We found novel sets of transcripts completing several important reproductive pathways such as gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) signaling and progesterone-mediated oocyte maturation. In addition, we found transcripts encoding for receptors crucial for initiation of the maturation process, such as GnRH receptor (GnRHR), voltage-dependent calcium channel L type alpha-1C (CACNA1C) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Moreover, we found a putative novel vigillin encoding for an estrogen-induced polysome-associated protein, which has not been reported in penaeid shrimp. These results suggest that the regulatory mechanism of the pathways important to reproductive maturation might be similar to those in the vertebrate. The obtained data will consequently accelerate the study of reproductive biology of this important species to ensure a sustainable shrimp farming industry. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 14 September 2017.
All research outputs
#22,764,772
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Marine Genomics
#387
of 486 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#284,516
of 323,702 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Marine Genomics
#16
of 23 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 486 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.5. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 323,702 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 23 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
