The genetic basis and potential molecular mechanism of yellow-albino northern snakehead (Channa argus)

The genetic basis and potential molecular mechanism of yellow-albino northern snakehead (Channa argus)

Body colour is an important economic trait for commercial fishes. Recently, a new colour morph displaying market-favoured yellow skin (termed as yellow-mutant, YM) of northern snakehead (Channa argus) was discovered in China. We confirmed that YM snakehead is an albino with complete loss of melanin...
