RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) is a powerful tool that captures information about how organisms respond to stimuli in their environment at the molecular level. A common RNA-Seq approach involves isolating and sequencing all of the messenger RNA (mRNA) in a tissue sample taken from an organism. Researchers can compare patterns observed in RNA-Seq data to understand how individuals respond to the environment over minutes, hours, or days and how populations evolve in response to the environment over millions of years.
