Scorpion genome sequencing

[brjordan]

Hello all,

Some people here are interested in scorpion genome sequencing. Do you know of any ongoing or planned project on this interesting creature (a living fossil, I'm told, so quite fascinating from the point of view of evolution)?

Thanks for any info or lead,

Cheers,

Bertrand

how far would be our euscorpius italicus from the very early brontoscorpion genetically?

are there some teams working on that specy?

You might have a look at the Gold database - google "gold genome" and have a look around.

Of course, not all projects are registered here, so I would spend some time googling as well.
