piRNAs are abundant in the early embryo of the crustacean Parhyale hawaiensis

Llilians Calvo, Tom Pettini, Guillem Ylla…·Sam Griffiths‐Jones

This study identifies and characterizes piRNAs in the early embryo of Parhyale hawaiensis, showing their abundance early in development and subsequent reduction after germ cell specification.

The developmental transcriptome of Parhyale hawaiensis: microRNAs and mRNAs show different expression dynamics during the maternal-zygotic transition

Llilians Calvo, Maria Birgaoanu, Tom Pettini…·Sam Griffiths‐Jones

The paper sequenced microRNAs and mRNAs in Parhyale hawaiensis during embryonic development, identifying new microRNA loci and showing distinct expression dynamics during the maternal-zygotic transition.
