Two Chlorinated Benzofuran Derivatives from the Marine Fungus

Natural Product Communications, 2015
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-

Species and size diversity in protective services offered by coral guard-crabs [PDF]

PeerJ, 2014
Coral guard-crabs in the genus Trapezia are well-documented defenders of their pocilloporid coral hosts against coral predators such as the Crown-of-Thorns seastar (Acanthaster planci complex).

Embryonic development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Starfish play essential ecological roles as predators and ecosystem regulators; however, detailed developmental descriptions exist for only a handful of species, none of which are from the Mediterranean Sea. Results In this study, we provide the first full account of the development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata ...

A Generalizable Tool for Predicting Developmental Phenology for Wild Ecotherms

Ecology 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 ...

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

Protein 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 ...

Rapid Evolution in a Coral Population Following a Mass Mortality Event

Evolutionary 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 ...

Non‐Invasive Underwater DNA Sampling Illuminates Red Sea Echinoderm Diversity

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Species‐specific non‐invasive underwater DNA sampling remains largely understudied for marine invertebrates despite its potential to revolutionise biodiversity assessment of vulnerable species or fragile ecosystems. Comprehensive species‐specific DNA barcode databases are essential for accurate species identification and taxonomic assignment ...
