Resumo(s)
Genomic tools applied to non-model organisms are critical to design successful conservation
strategies of particularly threatened groups. Freshwater mussels of the Unionida order are among
the most vulnerable taxa and yet almost no genetic resources are available. Here, we present the gill
transcriptomes of five European freshwater mussels with high conservation concern: Margaritifera
margaritifera, Unio crassus, Unio pictorum, Unio mancus and Unio delphinus. The final assemblies, with
N50 values ranging from 1069–1895 bp and total BUSCO scores above 90% (Eukaryote and Metazoan
databases), were structurally and functionally annotated, and made available. The transcriptomes here
produced represent a valuable resource for future studies on these species’ biology and ultimately guide
their conservation.
