Gene Expression Variations of Red—White Skin Coloration in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio)

Teleosts have more types of chromatophores than other vertebrates and the genetic basis for pigmentation is highly conserved among vertebrates. Therefore, teleosts are important models to study the mechanism of pigmentation. Although functional genes and genetic variations of pigmentation have been...
