show Abstracthide AbstractPotamoprygus anitpodarum is a New Zealand freshwater snail with broad relevance to evolution and ecology. P. anitpodarum is characterized by multiple transitions to asexuality and polyploidy and for having coexisting, phenotypically and ecologically similar diploid sexual and polyploid asexual populations. It is also notable for its coevolving relationship with the sterilizing trematode parasite, Microphallus as well as being a global invasive species. Here we generated RNA-seq data from the body of a diploid female individual from Lake Alexandrina, New Zealand in an effort to include a broad array of individuals and life history stages for transcriptomics.
