The Golden Apple Snail Pomacea canaliculata: From Zygotes to Stable Mutant Lines.

Abstract excerpt

The freshwater golden apple snail (Pomacea canaliculata) is emerging as a powerful model organism for regenerative biology, particularly for studying the molecular mechanisms of sensory organ regeneration. They can fully regenerate their camera-type eyes, which have vertebrate-like anatomical features such as retina, cornea, and lens organized in a closed chamber. Coupled with a relatively small diploid genome,...
