Germline-Specific Repetitive Elements in Programmatically Eliminated Chromosomes of the Sea Lamprey (<i>Petromyzon marinus</i>)
The sea lamprey (<i>Petromyzon marinus</i>) is one of few vertebrate species known to reproducibly eliminate large fractions of its genome during normal embryonic development. This germline-specific DNA is lost in the form of large fragments, including entire chromosomes, and available e...
