A Generalizable Tool for Predicting Developmental Phenology for Wild Ecotherms

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Custom hatch timing models developed for four North American Lithobates frog species. Models are parameterized from Moore (1939). Panels (A, B) shows differential developmental rates under varying thermal regimes and G × E interactions. ABSTRACT Development in poikilothermic organisms is strongly temperature‐dependent, particularly during early life ...

Trichodermaerin, a New Diterpenoid Lactone from the Marine Fungus Associated with the Sea Star

open access: yesNatural Product Communications, 2013
Trichodermaerin (1), a novel diterpenoid lactone, together with the known compound, harziandione (2) were isolated from the culture broth of the fungus Trichoderma erinaceum associated with the sea star Acanthaster planci.

Putative chemosensory receptors are differentially expressed in the sensory organs of male and female crown-of-thorns starfish, Acanthaster planci

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2018
Background Chemosensation is a critical signalling process for all organisms and is achieved through the interaction between chemosensory receptors and their ligands.

Evolutionary history and recombination in the mitochondrial carrier SLC25 superfamily analyzed by similarities in the exon and transmembrane α‐helix sequences

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Mitochondrial carriers (MCs), which constitute a superfamily also called the solute carrier family 25 (SLC25), are characterized by conserved signature motif sequences and a six‐transmembrane α‐helical transporter domain. They transport a wide variety of substrates ranging from protons, inorganic ions, citric acid cycle intermediates, and ...

Effects of larvae density and food concentration on Crown-of-Thorns seastar (Acanthaster cf. solaris) development in an automated flow-through system

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Coral-eating Crown-of-Thorns Sea stars (Acanthaster spp.) are major contributors to coral reef loss in the Indo-Pacific region. A release from food limitation of their planktotrophic larvae through enhanced pelagic productivity is one of the main ...

Warming but not Food Limitation Alters Metabolism During Larval Development in Crown‐of‐Thorns Sea Stars (Acanthaster cf. Solaris)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
This work investigates how two factors (food and temperature) affect the metabolic rates of the larval stages of ecologically important coral‐eating crown‐of‐thorns sea star (Acanthaster sp.). Warming increased metabolic rates, with oxygen consumption at raised temperatures compared to control. After accounting for larval size, feeding had no effect on

Integrated Ecological and Molecular Assessment of a Crown-of-Thorns Seastar (Acanthaster planci) Outbreak in the Gulf of Oman (UAE)

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Outbreaks of crown-of-thorns sea stars (CoTS) threaten coral reef integrity and biodiversity, yet local dynamics and short-term responses to control remain insufficiently described.

Rapid Evolution in a Coral Population Following a Mass Mortality Event

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Globally, corals face an increased frequency of mass mortality events (MMEs) as populations experience repeated marine heatwaves which disrupt their obligate algal symbiosis. Despite greater occurrences of MMEs, the relative roles of the environment, host, and symbiont genetic variation in survival, subsequent recovery, and carry‐over effects ...

Antiviral activity of Acanthaster planci phospholipase A2 against human immunodeficiency virus [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary World, 2018
Aim: Investigation of antiviral activity of Acanthaster planci phospholipase A2 (AP-PLA2) from moluccas to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Materials and Methods: Crude venom (CV) and F20 (PLA2 with 20% fractioned by ammonium sulfate) as a sample ...
