A Pentaradial and Bilateral Combined Photoreception System in the Sea Cucumber is Mediated by a Blue Light‐Sensitive R‐Opsin

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 58, 19 October 2026.
The sea cucumber Holothuria leucospilota detects blue and adjacent wavelengths of light via an r‐opsin with a maximum absorption at 459 nm. In the oral tentacles, papillae, and tube feet, distinct light‐sensing structures with specialized morphologies are formed, constituting a unique pentaradial and bilateral combined photoreception system.

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 ...

Effect of Elevated Temperature on the Metabolic Activity of the Coral Reef Asteroid Acanthaster planci (L.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1974
Standard rate of oxygen uptake in the coral reef asteroid Acanthaster planci(L.) was determined for the temperature range of 25° to 33° C and a metabolic rate-temperature (M-T) curve was drawn. Acanthaster planci is a metabolic conformer.

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 ...
