The chromosomal genome sequence of the common sea fan, Gorgonia ventalina (Linnaeus, 1758) (Malacalcyonacea: Gorgoniidae) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
Wellcome Open ResearchWe present a genome assembly from an individual Gorgonia ventalina (common sea fan; Cnidaria; Anthozoa; Malacalcyonacea; Gorgoniidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 339.18 megabases.

The proteotranscriptomic characterization of venom in the white seafan Eunicella singularis elucidates the evolution of Octocorallia arsenal [PDF]
Open BiologyAll the members of the phylum Cnidaria are characterized by the production of venom in specialized structures, the nematocysts. Venom of jellyfish (Medusozoa) and sea anemones (Anthozoa) has been investigated since the 1970s, revealing a remarkable ...

Evolutionary diversification of banded tube-dwelling anemones (Cnidaria; Ceriantharia; Isarachnanthus) in the Atlantic Ocean. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The use of molecular data for species delimitation in Anthozoa is still a very delicate issue. This is probably due to the low genetic variation found among the molecular markers (primarily mitochondrial) commonly used for Anthozoa.
