Abstract The stomach‐less cunner wrasse (Tautogolabrus adspersus) has been experimentally used as a biological control agent for salmon lice that infest Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and to remove biofouling inside sea cages. The cunner demonstrates a strong population structure, suggesting that its diet, and therefore its usefulness for biological ...

Abstract As climate change progresses, the intensity and variability of freshwater outflow into the ocean are predicted to increase. The resulting increase in low‐salinity events, paired with other abiotic stressors (including increasing temperatures), will be a source of stress for the kelp Saccharina latissima (Saccharina hereafter) and potentially ...

Proteomic Analyses of the Unexplored Sea Anemone Bunodactis verrucosa
Cnidarian toxic products, particularly peptide toxins, constitute a promising target for biomedicine research. Indeed, cnidarians are considered as the largest phylum of generally toxic animals. However, research on peptides and toxins of sea anemones is

Road verges can be important habitats for vascular plant communities and the organisms that, in turn, depend on them. However, the plant diversity in Swedish road verges is threatened by the invasive perennial plant Lupinus polyphyllus Lindl. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of L.

Human‐invisible but bee‐visible UV patterns in flowers aid pollination by signalling to pollinators and protecting vulnerable DNA in pollen. ABSTRACT Ultraviolet light shining on flowers has various effects. In this review we assess functions of UV pigments and UV reflection patterns in flowers, including visual signalling by reflectance, fluorescence,

Multigene Family of Pore-Forming Toxins from Sea Anemone Heteractis crispa
Sea anemones produce pore-forming toxins, actinoporins, which are interesting as tools for cytoplasmic membranes study, as well as being potential therapeutic agents for cancer therapy.

Predicting protein decomposition: the case of aspartic-acid racemization kinetics [PDF]
The increase in proportion of the non-biological (D-) isomer of aspartic acid (Asp) relative to the L- isomer has been widely used in archaeology and geochemistry as a tool for dating. The method has proved controversial, particularly when used for bones.

Physiology and metabolism of eukaryotic microalgae involved in aquatic photosymbioses
Summary Symbiosis between eukaryotic microalgae and heterotrophic hosts is a widespread, phylogenetically convergent, and ecologically important phenomenon in aquatic ecosystems. Partners include taxonomically diverse microalgae interacting with multicellular or unicellular hosts in marine or freshwater environments.
