Tentacle Morphological Variation Coincides with Differential Expression of Toxins in Sea Anemones
Toxins, 2021 Phylum Cnidaria is an ancient venomous group defined by the presence of cnidae, specialised organelles that serve as venom delivery systems. The distribution of cnidae across the body plan is linked to regionalisation of venom production, with tissue ...

Acontia, a Specialised Defensive Structure, Has Low Venom Complexity in Calliactis polypus
Toxins, 2023 Phylum Cnidaria represents a unique group among venomous taxa, with its delivery system organised as individual organelles, known as nematocysts, heterogeneously distributed across morphological structures rather than packaged as a specialised organ ...

A Network Approach to White Band Disease Challenged Staghorn Coral <i>Acropora cervicornis</i>microRNAs and Their Targets. [PDF]
Ecol EvolOur study looks at the association between microRNA expression and disease resistance in Caribbean staghorn corals infected with White Band Disease. We find three microRNAs differentially expressed due to disease resistance with putative targets involved in innate immunity.

Phylogenetic relationships among deep-sea and chemosynthetic sea anemones: actinoscyphiidae and actinostolidae (Actiniaria: Mesomyaria). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 Sea anemones (Cnidaria, Actiniaria) are present in all marine ecosystems, including chemosynthetic environments. The high level of endemicity of sea anemones in chemosynthetic environments and the taxonomic confusion in many of the groups to which these ...

Check List of Iran marine Cnidarians (Animalia, Cnidaria) [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Animal Biosystematics, 2020 There is an urgent need for quality control of marine species data published in domestic journals and open access databases. We extracted 149 accepted Cnidarian species after the quality control process on available published records on the OBIS data ...
