A Genetic Map for the Only Self-Fertilizing Vertebrate

A Genetic Map for the Only Self-Fertilizing Vertebrate

The mangrove killifish Kryptolebias marmoratus, and its close relative Kryptolebias hermaphroditus, are the only vertebrate species known to reproduce by self-fertilization due to functional ovotestis development. To improve our understanding of their genomes, we constructed a genetic map. First, a...
