Not Drug-like, but Like Drugs: Cnidaria Natural Products
Marine Drugs, 2021 Phylum Cnidaria has been an excellent source of natural products, with thousands of metabolites identified. Many of these have not been screened in bioassays.

Evidence for a genetic sex determination in Cnidaria, the Mediterranean red coral (Corallium rubrum) [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 Sexual reproduction is widespread among eukaryotes, and the sex-determining processes vary greatly among species. While genetic sex determination (GSD) has been intensively described in bilaterian species, no example has yet been recorded among non ...

Coral Venom and Toxins as Protection Against Crown‐of‐Thorns Sea Star Attack [PDF]
Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Crown‐of‐thorns sea star (CoTS) outbreaks are a main cause of hard coral cover decline across the Indo‐Pacific, posing a major threat to the resilience of coral reefs. However, the drivers underlying CoTS feeding on preferred (e.g., Acropora species) versus non‐preferred (e.g., Porites species) are poorly understood. We hypothesised that coral

Biodiversity and frequency of occurrence of jellyfish (cnidaria) in Al Hoceima Bay (North coast of Morocco, Alboran Sea) [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 Jellyfish are the best-known group of gelatinous zooplankton; they refer to organisms from the phylum Cnidaria, including animals with cnidocytes (stinging cells).

Revisionary systematics of Octocorallia (Cnidaria: Anthozoa) guided by phylogenomics
Bulletin of the Society of Systematic Biologists, 2022 The anthozoan sub-class Octocorallia includes over 3500 nominal species of soft corals and gorgonian sea fans, many of which serve as critical foundation species in benthic marine ecosystems in shallow waters to the deep sea.

Phylogenomics, Origin and Diversification of Anthozoans (Phylum Cnidaria).
Systematic Biology, 2021 Anthozoan cnidarians (corals and sea anemones) include some of the world's most important foundation species, capable of building massive reef complexes that support entire ecosystems.

Learning in Cnidaria: a summary
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2023 Based on a systematic literature search, I recently reviewed learning in the phylum Cnidaria, animals possessing a nerve net as a nervous system but no centralized brain.

The Role of DNA Methylation in Genome Defense in Cnidaria and Other Invertebrates
Molecular biology and evolution, 2022 Considerable attention has recently been focused on the potential involvement of DNA methylation in regulating gene expression in cnidarians. Much of this work has been centered on corals, in the context of changes in methylation perhaps facilitating ...

Transposon-derived transcription factors across metazoans
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023 Transposable elements (TE) could serve as sources of new transcription factors (TFs) in plants and some other model species, but such evidence is lacking for most animal lineages. Here, we discovered multiple independent co-options of TEs to generate 788
