Fine mapping of the pond snail left-right asymmetry (chirality) locus using RAD-Seq and fibre-FISH

The left-right asymmetry of snails, including the direction of shell coiling, is determined by the delayed effect of a maternal gene on the chiral twist that takes place during early embryonic cell divisions. Yet, despite being a well-established classical problem, the identity of the gene and the m...
