Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses provide insights into the adaptive responses to the combined impact of salinity and alkalinity in Gymnocypris przewalskii

Abstract

Highlights 1. Effects of salinity, alkalinity and their combined impact were analysed with transcriptome and and proteomics methods in G. przewalskii. 2. The validity of transcriptome and proteome results in G. przewalskii was compared. 3. Hub genes in the adaptive responses to the combined impact of salinity and alkalinity were isolated. 4. Physiological regulation mechanisms regarding salinity, alkalinity, and salinity-alkalinity interactions were discussed.
