Generation of the T. bryosalmonae intersect transcriptome from spore sacs and fish kidney tissues. The contigs derived from each host assembly were filtered against the T. kitauei genome and/or a T. bryosalmonae genome sequence dataset to remove host contamination. The intersect transcriptome was generated by BLASTing the bryozoan parasite-filtered contigs against the trout parasite-filtered contigs, resulting in 7362 predicted contigs. The graphs show a BlobPlot of each contig assembly by phylum, with contigs positioned on the X-axis based on their GC proportion and on the Y-axis based on the sum of coverage. Sequence contigs in the assembly are depicted as circles, with diameter scaled proportional to sequence length and coloured by taxonomic annotation.
