Diseases affecting this species can result in large economic losses. Because knowledge of the molecular mechanisms of the immune response in bivalves, especially clams, is scarce and fragmentary, we sequenced RNA from immune-stimulated R. philippinarum hemocytes by 454-pyrosequencing to identify genes involved in their immune defense against infectious diseases.16 p.application/pdfengcc-by (c) Moreira, R. et al., 2012http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/esCloïssesRNAResposta immunitàriaMalalties infeccioses en els animalsClamsRNAImmune responseCommunicable diseases in animalsTranscriptomics of In Vitro Immune-Stimulated Hemocytes from the Manila Clam Ruditapes philippinarum Using High-Throughput Sequencinginfo:eu-repo/semantics/article6081662013-05-10info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess22536348
