Abstract excerpt
Body color is the most prominent phenotypic trait in animals. To investigate the molecular regulatory mechanisms underlying skin pigmentation and body color in Channa argus, single-nucleus RNA sequencing technology was employed to analyze cell diversity and functional changes in the skin of normal and albino C. argus. Three pigment-related cell types, seven immune-related cell types, and nine other skin-related...
