Comparative analysis of miRNA expression during the development of insects of different metamorphosis modes and germ-band types
Abstract Background Do miRNAs contribute to specify the germ-band type and the body structure in the insect embryo? Our goal was to address that issue by studying the changes in miRNA expression along the ontogeny of the German cockroach Blattella germanica, which is a short germ-band and hemimetabo...
