Sex-Specific Genes Identified in Sea Urchin Gonads are Expressed Prior to Metamorphosis
2022-01-28
Abstract excerpt
A great collaboration between the germline and somatic cells of an organism is the creation of a functional gonad. Here we begin to test this mechanism in a sea urchin by use of RNA-seq, and quantitative mRNA measurements throughout the life cycle of the sea urchin, Lytechinus variegatus (Lv) . We found through de novo analyses that the ovary and testis of this echinoderm contains the many transcripts predicted f...
