Genome-Wide DNA Methylation Signatures of Sea Cucumber <i>Apostichopus japonicus</i> during Environmental Induced Aestivation

Genome-Wide DNA Methylation Signatures of Sea Cucumber <i>Apostichopus japonicus</i> during Environmental Induced Aestivation

Organisms respond to severe environmental changes by entering into hypometabolic states, minimizing their metabolic rates, suspending development and reproduction, and surviving critical ecological changes. They come back to an active lifestyle once the environmental conditions are conducive. Marine...
