Northern mauxia shrimp Acetes chinensis, a major fished shrimp in East Asia, serves as an important marine resource in food industry. Here, we collected wild A. chinensis samples and conducted RNA-Seq experiment using different body parts to obtain the transcriptome profile using Illumina HiSeq technology. After de novo assembly, 63,396 transcripts were obtained, and 41,898 transcripts were functionally annotated in reference databases. We further identified a number of well-known transcription factors that are possibly associated with environmental changes. This transcriptome dataset could be immediately used for gene discovery and functional characterization. Our study will shed light on the investigation of molecular adaption of A. chinensis to the changing marine environment.
