Identification and Characterization of microRNAs and Their Predicted Functions in Biomineralization in the Pearl Oyster (<i>Pinctada fucata</i>)

Identification and Characterization of microRNAs and Their Predicted Functions in Biomineralization in the Pearl Oyster (<i>Pinctada fucata</i>)

The biological process of pearl formation is an ongoing research topic, and a number of genes associated with this process have been identified. However, the involvement of microRNAs (miRNAs) in biomineralization in the pearl oyster, <i>Pinctada fucata</i>, is not well understood. In ord...
