The Chinese mitten crab genome provides insights into adaptive plasticity and developmental regulation

Brachyurans, or crabs, are of commercial and ecological importance, but limited genomic resources exist. Here the authors present a chromosome-level genome and expression data for the Chinese mitten crab, to shed light on the biology of this group.
