Because the axolotl has such an immense genome, it has never been fully sequenced — unlike the frog, which is the go - to model for amphibian embryonic development.
In work published in the summer of 2016 in the journal Developmental Biology, researchers looked at 17 different development stages of axolotl embryos and found a highly unusual series of bursts in changes in gene expression, followed by stable periods, that is unique in developmental biology.
Nelson's research seeks to understand the axolotl's gargantuan genome and gene expression over the course of its development.
