RNA-seq data from different developmental stages of Rafflesia cantleyi floral buds
Rafflesia cantleyi, known as one of the world's largest flowers, is a specialised holoparasite due to dramatic morphological modifications. It possesses highly reduced vegetative structure and only appears as a flower for sexual reproduction.

Transcriptional responses in the hepatopancreas of Eriocheir sinensis exposed to deltamethrin.
Deltamethrin is an important pesticide widely used against ectoparasites. Deltamethrin contamination has resulted in a threat to the healthy breeding of the Chinese mitten crab, Eriocheir sinensis. In this study, we investigated transcriptional responses
