Species Covered

Species

Ascidiacea (commonly known as the ascidians or sea squirts), is a wide class in the subphylum called Tunicata (also known as Urochordata). Ascidians are present throughout all over the world's seas and oceans. These species are characterized by a tough outer "tunic" made of the polysaccharide cellulose.

TIPS
How do I search for a molecular tool?

Aniseed supports the description of expression patterns and phenotypes in response to perturbations of gene function. To define these perturbations, it uses the concept of "Molecular tool"...
