Whole-Genome Resequencing of Red Junglefowl and Indigenous Village Chicken Reveal New Insights on the Genome Dynamics of the Species.

abstract：:As a commercially important species, the Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) has been cultured for a long time in China. Agonistic behavior often causes limb disability and requires much energy, which is harmful to the growth and survival of crabs. In this paper, we divided crabs into a control group (control, no...
