De Novo Transcriptome Assembly and Gene Expression Profiling of the Copepod <i>Calanus helgolandicus</i> Feeding on the PUA-Producing Diatom <i>Skeletonema marinoi</i>

Diatoms are the dominant component of the marine phytoplankton. Several diatoms produce secondary metabolites, namely oxylipins, with teratogenic effects on their main predators, crustacean copepods. Our study reports the de novo assembled transcriptome of the calanoid copepod <i>Calanus helgo...
