Comparative transcriptomics reveals candidate carotenoid color genes in an East African cichlid fish
BACKGROUND: Carotenoids contribute significantly to animal body coloration, including the spectacular color pattern diversity among fishes. Fish, as other animals, derive carotenoids from their diet. Following uptake, transport and metabolic conversion, carotenoids allocated to body coloration are d...
