A transcriptomic and histological study on land adaptation mechanism of Helice tridens tientsinensis
From the perspective of transcriptomics, this study is the first to explore the adaptation mechanism of H. tientsinensis to terrestrial habitat. Based on transcriptomics, it is found that the molecular mechanism of adaptations to terrestrial habitats may involve cytoskeleton and motility regulation related genes. It may adapt to terrestrial habitats by regulating energy metabolism and regulating water balance in vivo and adapting to terrestrial habitats with more complete protein quality control and repair systems.
