Blast method to use for blasting genes against a transcriptome

Hi,

I have a transcriptome assembly of a non-model organism for which I created a custom database using makeblastdb. I have the cDNA sequences of some of the genes I need to align with the transcriptome to find similar sequences. What blast strategy should I use for this? tblastn, blastx or simply blastn?

Thanks

rna-seq blast assembly

I think blastn should do the job!
