Genomic resources of Ascidiella aspersa and comparative analysis across tunicates reveal class-level features and evolutionary diversification

Ascidiella aspersa is an invasive tunicate and one of the closest relatives of vertebrates. Despite its ecological nuisance, A. aspersa is anticipated to be a valuable model organism for developmental studies due to its remarkably transparent embryos. However, annotated genome as...
