Article Synopsis
- Scientists studied the different kinds of soil animals (macrofauna) in Hong Kong and created a project where students and volunteers helped collect information.
- They found 150 different types of these soil animals, mostly millipedes and oligochaetes, and identified 85 of them using special DNA techniques.
- The study results are now shared online to help others learn about soil biodiversity and for future research.
Whole genome duplication (WGD) has occurred in relatively few sexually reproducing invertebrates. Consequently, the WGD that occurred in the common ancestor of horseshoe crabs ~135 million years ago provides a rare opportunity to decipher the evolutionary consequences of a duplicated invertebrate genome. Here, we present a high-quality genome assembly for the mangrove horseshoe crab Carcinoscorpius rotundicauda (1.
