Skimming genomes for systematics and DNA barcodes of corals [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Numerous genomic methods developed over the past two decades have enabled the discovery and extraction of orthologous loci to help resolve phylogenetic relationships across various taxa and scales. Genome skimming (or low‐coverage genome sequencing) is a

Evolution of bioluminescence in Anthozoa with emphasis on Octocorallia. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Biol Sci
Bioluminescence is a widespread phenomenon that has evolved multiple times across the tree of life, converging among diverse fauna and habitat types. The ubiquity of bioluminescence, particularly in marine environments where it is commonly used for communication and defense, highlights the adaptive value of this trait, though the evolutionary origins ...

Photoreceptor Diversification Accompanies the Evolution of Anthozoa [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology and Evolution, 2020
Abstract Anthozoan corals are an ecologically important group of cnidarians, which power the productivity of reef ecosystems. They are sessile, inhabit shallow, tropical oceans and are highly dependent on sun- and moonlight to regulate sexual reproduction, phototaxis, and photosymbiosis. However, their exposure to high levels of sunlight

Contribution of Maternal and Paternal Transmission to Bacterial Colonization in Nematostella vectensis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Microbial communities confer multiple beneficial effects to their multicellular hosts. To evaluate the evolutionary and ecological implications of the animal-microbe interactions, it is essential to understand how bacterial colonization is secured and ...

Late Carboniferous colonial Rugosa (Anthozoa) from Alaska

open access: yesGeologica Acta, 2014
Late Carboniferous colonial corals from the Moscovian Saginaw Bay Formation and the underlying Bashkirian crinoidal limestone exposed on northeastern Kuiu Island and a nearby islet, part of the Alexander terrane in southeastern Alaska, are described and ...

Environmental and molecular regulation of asexual reproduction in the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2023
Cnidarians exhibit incredible reproductive diversity, with most capable of sexual and asexual reproduction. Here, we investigate factors that influence asexual reproduction in the burrowing sea anemone Nematostella vectensis, which can propagate ...

Corallimorpharians (Anthozoa: Corallimorpharia) from the Argentinean Sea [PDF]

open access: yesZootaxa, 2019
Corallimorpharians are a relative small group of anthozoan cnidarians, also known as jewel sea anemones. They resemble actiniarian sea anemones in lacking a skeleton and being solitary, but resemble scleractinian corals in external and internal morphology, and they are considered to be the sister group of the stony corals.
