By comparing the V. carteri germ and
somatic cell transcriptomes, Matt and Umen found that the
somatic cells had more transcripts from young,
lineage - specific genes, whereas the germ
cells had more transcripts from ancient genes that are similar to those expressed in stem
cells from animals and land plants.
