Description
Summary:Additional file 9: Figure S2. The concept of gene expansion in lieu of alternative splicing. We observed a proliferation of genes with annotated functions that overlap with those of the tissues where the coconut crab has lower alternative splicing than its aquatic counterparts. Based on our observation that there are differing alternative splicing profiles for the gills of L. vannamei, we hypothesize that the coconut crab might have a higher reliance on alternative splicing during its time in the marine environment.
