Transcriptome analysis of blastula, brachiolaria larva and adult epidermis in starfish Patiria pectinifera

Transcriptome analysis of blastula, brachiolaria larva and adult epidermis in starfish Patiria pectinifera was conducted to resolve the issues of evolution and development in echinoderm

为阐明棘皮动物（echinoderm）的演化与发育相关问题，本研究对海燕（Patiria pectinifera）的囊胚（blastula）、短腕幼虫（brachiolaria larva）及成体表皮（adult epidermis）开展了转录组分析（transcriptome analysis）。
