Transcriptomic analysis of mRNA and miRNA reveals new insights into the regulatory mechanisms of Anadara granosa responses to heat stress.

Temperature fluctuations resulting from climate change and global warming pose significant threats to various species. The blood clam, Anadara granosa, a commercially important marine bivalve, predominantly inhabits intertidal mudflats that are especially susceptible to elevated temperatures. This vulnerability has led to noticeable declines in the survival rates of A.
