Cnidarian Pattern Recognition Receptor Repertoires Reflect Both Phylogeny and Life History Traits
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) are evolutionarily ancient and crucial components of innate immunity, recognizing danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and activating host defenses.

Submarine caves as potential climate microrefugia for symbiotic octocorals
Frontiers in Marine ScienceClimatic refugia are receiving increasing attention in the context of global warming and the rising frequency and intensity of marine heatwaves (MHWs). Long-lived and slow-growing organisms, such as many octocorals, are highly threatened by the increase ...

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

Corallimorpharians are not “naked corals”: insights into relationships between Scleractinia and Corallimorpharia from phylogenomic analyses [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Calcification is one of the most distinctive traits of scleractinian corals. Their hard skeletons form the substratum of reef ecosystems and confer on corals their remarkable diversity of shapes.

Estuarine benthic diversity declines with temperature across a tropical–temperate gradient
Ecography, EarlyView.Estuarine benthic sediments are important habitats that support ecosystem health and productivity, but the drivers of large‐scale patterns in benthic diversity are not well documented. Using 18S amplicon sequencing of 425 sediment DNA samples from estuaries spanning 20° of latitude along Australia's east coast, we assessed tropical–temperate patterns ...
