A chromosome-level genome of Astyanax mexicanus surface fish for comparing population-specific genetic differences contributing to trait evolution

A chromosome-level genome of Astyanax mexicanus surface fish for comparing population-specific genetic differences contributing to trait evolution

Mexican Tetra cavefish have long been of interest in understanding adaptation to severe environmental change. Here the authors present a chromosome-level genome for the proxy-ancestral surface fish, and use CRISPR gene-editing to show the role of the rx3 gene in eye size.
