Heat‐Evolved Microalgae (Symbiodiniaceae) Are Stable Symbionts and Influence Thermal Tolerance of the Sea Anemone Exaiptasia diaphana

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2025.
Heat‐evolved photosymbionts have maintained long‐term symbiosis with sea anemones, impacting their thermotolerance and metabolome in distinct ways under simulated summer heatwave conditions. Notably, one of the ten heat‐evolved strains (SS8) promoted high anemone thermotolerance. Our finding suggests that heat stress may increase autophagy and decrease

Quantifying predation on benthos and its overlap with bottom fishing in the NW Atlantic

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Continental shelves experience many human pressures with demersal fisheries central to disturbing the ocean floor. However, ecological processes such as predation rates of benthos and their relationship with bottom fishing are often unknown for large marine ecosystems.

Eyeing DNA barcoding for species identification of fish larvae

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 105, Issue 6, Page 1784-1799, December 2024.
Abstract Identification of fish larvae based on morphology is typically limited to higher taxonomic ranks (e.g., family or order), as larvae possess few morphological diagnostic characters for precise discrimination to species. When many samples are presented at any one time, the use of morphology to identify such specimens can be laborious and time ...

A next generation approach to species delimitation reveals the role of hybridization in a cryptic species complex of corals

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019
Background Our ability to investigate processes shaping the evolutionary diversification of corals (Cnidaria: Anthozoa) is limited by a lack of understanding of species boundaries.

Spicy food for the egg-cowries: the evolution of corallivory in the Ovulidae (Gastropoda: Cypraeoidea)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
IntroductionHost-parasite associations provide very useful models to study adaptive processes. We investigated the interaction between carnivorous marine gastropods, the Ovulidae or egg-cowries, and their cnidarian food targets. Ovulidae (Fleming, 1828),
