Identification of cell-type specific alternative transcripts in the multicellular alga Volvox carteri

Abstract Background Cell type specialization is a hallmark of complex multicellular organisms and is usually established through implementation of cell-type-specific gene expression programs. The multicellular green alga Volvox carteri has just two cell types, germ and soma, that have previously bee...
