Satellitome Analysis of the Pacific Oyster <i>Crassostrea gigas</i> Reveals New Pattern of Satellite DNA Organization, Highly Scattered across the Genome

Satellitome Analysis of the Pacific Oyster <i>Crassostrea gigas</i> Reveals New Pattern of Satellite DNA Organization, Highly Scattered across the Genome

Several features already qualified the invasive bivalve species <i>Crassostrea gigas</i> as a valuable non-standard model organism in genome research. <i>C. gigas</i> is characterized by the low contribution of satellite DNAs (satDNAs) vs. mobile elements and has an extremely...
