| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Molecular markers of starvation and dormancy were investigated in planktonic copepods by RNA-seq. For starvation, copepods showed up-regulation in NADH-dehydrogenase, and down-regulation in vitellogenin 2, which were suggested to be good indicators of starvation in the field. On the other hand, dormant copepods showed down-regulation of lipid synthesis and carbohydrates related enzymes, while up-regulation in hemerythrin, which is commonly recognized as oxygen transport protein. However, this protein contains three hemerythrin domains, which is similar to dormancy-related protein in insects.
