Comprehensive single cell transcriptome lineages of a proto-vertebrate
Studies of ascidian (sea squirt) embryos have highlighted the importance of cell lineages in animal development for over 100 years. As simple proto-vertebrates, they are also used to explore the evolutionary origins of novel cell types, such as cranial placodes and neural crest in vertebrates. To build upon these efforts we have determined comprehensive single cell transcriptomes of Ciona intestinalis throughout embryogenesis. More than 90,000 cells from 10 different developmental stages were...

Deep data QC
100/100 · AStandardized, field-standard QC computed by touching the data — every metric states how it was obtained · evidence: measured
The A grade is a transparent weighted average. Each metric below scored from 0–100% against the published bulk-RNA-seq thresholds, weighted by its importance; nothing is hidden or subjective.
