Horseshoe crab genomes reveal the evolution of genes and microRNAs after three rounds of whole genome duplication
Wenyan Nong, Zhe Qu, Yiqian Li, Tom Barton-Owen, Annette Wong and colleagues provide genomes and small RNA transcriptomes for the mangrove horseshoe crab and the tri-spine horseshoe crab. They show that horseshoe crabs have undergone three rounds of whole genome duplication and shed light on how gen...
