Transcriptomic variation of eyestalk reveals the genes and biological processes associated with molting in Portunus trituberculatus.

BACKGROUND:Molting is an essential biological process throughout the life history of crustaceans, which is regulated by many neuropeptide hormones expressed in the eyestalk. To better understand the molting mechanism in Portunus trituberculatus, we used digital gene expression (DGE) to analyze singl...
