Abstract excerpt
The cladoceran crustacean Daphnia has long been a model of energy allocation studies due to its important position in the trophic cascade of freshwater ecosystems. However, the loci for controlling energy allocation between life history traits still remain unknown. Here, we report CRISPR/Cas-mediated target mutagenesis of DNA methyltransferase 3.1 (DNMT3.1) that is upregulated in response to caloric restriction...
