- construct and assess E. quadricolor reference transcriptomes;
- distinguish host transcripts from symbiont-derived sequences;
- improve genome annotation with RNA-seq evidence and gene-prediction workflows;
- examine expression patterns and candidate fluorescent-protein genes; and
- preserve dated computational notes for transparent, reproducible follow-up.
