Gene expression profile at single cell level of two colored skin (red and white) from koi carp.. Gene expression profile at single cell level of two colored skin (red and white) from koi carp.

Fish are richly and diversely coloured and have a complex palette of pigment cells. We first investigated the diversity of skin cells in Kohaku koi by single-cell sequencing. Overall design: We collected red and white skin from three Kohaku koi and performed single-cell sequencing simultaneously.
