- who: Romain Gastineau from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the article: ufeffThe mitochondrial genome of the bioluminescent fish, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
SUMMARY
Sunlight is filtered by seawater and only blue/green light with wavelengths between 460 and 490 nm penetrates into the deep sea. Like almost all deep-sea fish, M. niger encode only blue opsin photoreceptor genes to detect the down welling as well as the bioluminescent light omnipresent in the environment. The authors initiated this study by analyzing the mitogenome of M. niger with short read sequencing technologies. It quickly appeared . . .
