English. This Special Issue on Crustacean Genomics arises from the TCS 2017 conference held inBarcelona, Spain, between 19 and 22 June, 2017.Applications of next generation sequencing haveexpanded rapidly over recent years, unveiling manynew and exciting areas of genomic research. Thisincludes novel insights into physiology, reproductivebiology, response to environmental challenges, andtheir evolutionary history. Despite their importance,crustaceans still lack genomic resources comparedwith other widely-studied groups such as insects andvertebrates. The present volume integrates a collectionof contributions from the speakers, and compiles themain results presented during the symposium. Following the structure of the Crustacean Genomicsworkshop, contributed papers have been arranged intwo main blocks, a first set of studies focused on theuse of transcriptomics to investigate crustacean physiology and reproduction while the second set focused on molecular systematics and evolutionary studies.
