RNA-seq analysis of Drosophila melanogaster pupal antennae

The goal of this study is to characterize the genes that are specifically expressed in the shaft cells of olfactory sensory organ precursors, and regulate nanopore formation on cuticular sheath. To this end, pupal antennae of a wild type strain and two mutant strains (amos and neur>Nb) of Drosophila were subjected to RNA-seq analysis.
