Two Chlorinated Benzofuran Derivatives from the Marine Fungus
The marine fungus Pseudallescheria boydii was isolated from the inner tissue of the starfish Acanthaster planci . This fungus was cultured in a high salinity glucose-peptone-yeast extract (GPY) medium. Two new chlorinated benzofuran derivatives, 6-chloro-

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
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]
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.

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 ...
