Comparative Genome Analysis Reveals the Genomic Basis of Semi-Aquatic Adaptation in American Mink (<i>Neovison vison</i>)

Although the American mink is extremely dependent on water and has evolved a range of aquatic characteristics, its structural adaptation to water is still less obvious than that of other typical semi-aquatic mammals, such as otters.
