The p53 signaling pathway of the large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea) responds to acute cold stress: evidence via spatiotemporal expression analysis of p53, p21, MDM2, IGF-1, Gadd45, Fas, and Akt.

abstract：:Metabarcoding can rapidly determine the species composition of bulk samples and thus aids biodiversity and ecosystem assessment. However, it is essential to use primer sets that minimize amplification bias among taxa to maximize species recovery. Despite this fact, the performance of primer sets employed for metabarco...
