A research team including researchers from Shimane University has decoded the partial genome of the firefly squid and reported on bioluminescent genes in the genome. Based on the result, they developed microsatellite markers and demonstrated that the firefly squids are exceptionally close to monogamous reproductive patten. For more details, please refer to the following papers; […]
