Gene Regulation during Carapacial Ridge Development of <i>Mauremys reevesii</i>: The Development of Carapacial Ridge, Ribs and Scutes

The unique topological structure of a turtle shell, including the special ribs–scapula relationship, is an evolutionarily novelty of amniotes. The carapacial ridge is a key embryonic tissue for inducing turtle carapace morphologenesis. However, the gene expression profiles and molecular regulatory m...
