Piwi1 is essential for gametogenesis in mollusk Chlamys farreri [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Piwi (P-element induced wimpy testis) is an important gene involved in stem cell maintenance and gametogenesis in vertebrates. However, in most invertebrates, especially mollusks, the function of Piwi during gametogenesis remains largely unclear.
