We have recently finished sequencing the two turtle genomes (Chinese soft-shell turtle, green sea turtle), together with early-to-late embryonic transcriptome profiling by RNAseq. Based upon the genomic and transcriptomic dataset, we have investigated how turtle specific body plan was established during evolution. Detailed information will be provided on our presentation (due to embargo agreement).
