Organochlorine pesticides and chlorpyrifos in the sea anemone Bunodosoma zamponii (Actiniaria: Actiniidae) from Argentina's southeastern coast

open access: greenScience of The Total Environment, 2021
Temporal and spatial distribution of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) and the organophosphate pesticide chlorpyrifos, one of the main insecticides used in Argentina, was evaluated in two populations of the sea anemone Bunodosoma zamponii living under different anthropological stressors: Las Delicias (LD) adjacent to a wastewater plant, and Punta ...

Adaptation and evolution of the sea anemone Alvinactis sp. to deep-sea hydrothermal vents: A comparison using transcriptomes. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol, 2022
The transcriptome of the sea anemone Alvinactis sp. from hydrothermal was sequenced in order to provide the probable molecular mechanisms related to adaption. Our results show that genetic changes in multiple biological processes jointly facilitate Alvinactis sp. to inhabit the vent environment.

High levels of gene variation and the population structure of Bunodosoma caissarum (Cnidaria: Actiniidae)

open access: green, 2016
Recientemente se ha informado sobre altos niveles de variación génetica en celenterados y esponjas de aguas templadas. Se presume que tales niveles se relacionan con sus modos de vida, condiciones ecológicas y tamaños de población. Sin embargo, se sabe muy poco sobre las poblaciones de anémonas marinas tropicales.

Statistical relationships of cnidocyst sizes in the sea anemone Oulactis muscosa (Actiniaria: Actiniidae)

open access: diamondBelgian Journal of Zoology
This study analysis the multivariate statistical relationships among cnidocyst types and tissues in terms of cnidocyst capsule size in the sea anemone O. muscosa. In a total of 12 individuals we measured the length of 30 unfired capsules of each cnida type, taken randomly from each of the following tissues: tentacles, acrorhagi, column, actinopharynx ...

Ecological notes onActinostella flosculifera(Le Sueur, 1817) (Cnidaria: Actiniaria: Actiniidae) in the South-western Atlantic, Brazil

open access: greenJournal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2023
AbstractSea anemones have developed various strategies for interspecific interaction with other organisms and their own ability to obtain food, due to their coevolutionary history, ranging from mutualistic (e.g. clownfish, crustaceans, etc.) and symbiotic associations (zooxanthellae or zoochlorellae) to depredation (e.g. sea slug).

Transcriptomics of the <i>Anthopleura</i> Sea Anemone Reveals Unique Adaptive Strategies to Shallow-Water Hydrothermal Vent. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
The nonsymbiotic sea anemone Anthopleura nigrescens thrives in the extreme shallow‐water hydrothermal vents off Kueishan Island, Taiwan, where they represent some of the world's most extreme environments. Transcriptomic analyses revealed that genes involved in H2S homeostasis, stress resistance, and DNA repair are enriched in vent populations ...

Sea anemones (Cnidaria, Anthozoa, Actiniaria) in high sedimentation environments influenced by the Magdalena River (Colombian Caribbean) [PDF]

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2022
Fifteen species of sea anemones (Cnidaria, Actiniaria) have been recorded so far in the Colombian Caribbean, comprising approximately 28% of the total number of known species in the Caribbean Sea.

Tentacle Transcriptomes of the Speckled Anemone (Actiniaria: Actiniidae: Oulactis sp.): Venom-Related Components and Their Domain Structure [PDF]

open access: bronzeMarine Biotechnology, 2020
Cnidarians are one of the oldest known animal lineages (ca. 700 million years), with a unique envenomation apparatus to deliver a potent mixture of peptides and proteins. Some peptide toxins from cnidarian venom have proven therapeutic potential. Here, we use a transcriptomic/proteomic strategy to identify sequences with similarity to known venom ...

The first Arctic conspicuously coloured Pleusymtes (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Pleustidae) associated with sea anemones in the Barents Sea

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Taxonomy, 2022
The article presents a potentially obligate association of a pleustid amphipod of the genus Pleusymtes (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Pleustidae) with the large sea anemone Urticina eques (Gosse, 1858) (Anthozoa: Actiniaria: Actiniidae) from shallow waters of ...
