Transcriptome Analysis of the Planarian Eye Identifies ovo as a Specific Regulator of Eye Regeneration
Among the millions of invertebrate species with visual systems, the genetic basis of eye development and function is well understood only in Drosophila melanogaster. We describe an eye transcriptome for the planarian Schmidtea mediterranea. Planarian photoreceptors expressed orthologs of genes requ...
