Entacmaea research

An open research notebook for genomic and transcriptomic work on the bubble-tip anemone, Entacmaea quadricolor, its microbial and dinoflagellate partners, and associated anemonefishes including Amphiprion frenatus and A. clarkii.

Research scope

  • 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.

Reference-transcriptome snapshot

The figures below compare GC-content patterns before host/symbiont filtering, after filtering, and in the putative symbiont fraction. They are exploratory quality-control views, not final biological conclusions.

Before filtering

Host-enriched set
GC-content distribution after host transcript filtering
Symbiont fraction
GC-content distribution in the putative symbiont fraction

Working with the notebook

Create a dated entry with:

./scripts/newlog.sh

Convert archived text notes to Markdown without committing automatically:

./scripts/txt2md_git.sh

Some historical logs contain machine-specific paths and exploratory commands. Review them before reuse. Raw sequencing data and large intermediate files are intentionally kept outside this repository.

Status

Active research notebook. Methods, annotations, and conclusions may change as analyses are checked and extended.
