Transcriptome analysis of interna rootlets of the rhizocephalan Parasacculina sinensis reveals potential mechanisms of parasite host control
Abstract Background The endoparasitic rhizocephalan Parasacculina sinensis has a radically simplified morphology and primarily infests decapods crustaceans. Rhizocephalan barnacles usually absorb nutrients from the host through a complex rootlet system (the interna), and also change the morphology,...
