Genetics Responses to Hypoxia and Reoxygenation Stress in <i>Larimichthys crocea</i> Revealed via Transcriptome Analysis and Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network

The large yellow croaker (<i>Larimichthys crocea</i>) is an important marine economic fish in China; however, its intolerance to hypoxia causes widespread mortality. To understand the molecular mechanisms underlying hypoxia tolerance in <i>L. crocea</i>, the transcriptome gen...
