Gene expression profiling of genetically determined growth variation in bivalve larvae (Crassostrea gigas).

Abstract excerpt

Growth rates in animals are governed by a wide range of biological factors, many of which remain poorly understood. To identify the genes that establish growth differences in bivalve larvae, we compared expression patterns in contrasting phenotypes (slow- and fast-growth) that were experimentally...
