Analysis of the gene transcription patterns and DNA methylation characteristics of triploid sea cucumbers (Apostichopus japonicus)

Abstract Breeding of polyploid aquatic animals is still an important approach and research hotspot for realizing the economic benefits afforded by the improvement of aquatic animal germplasm. To better understand the molecular mechanisms of the growth of triploid sea cucumbers, we performed gene exp...
