Seasonal dynamics and starvation impact on the gut microbiome of urochordate ascidian Halocynthia roretzi

Animal Microbiome, 2020
Background Gut microbiota plays important roles in host animal metabolism, homeostasis and environmental adaptation. However, the interplay between the gut microbiome and urochordate ascidian, the most closet relative of vertebrate, remains less explored.

Patterns, drivers and implications of ascidian distributions in a rapidly deglaciating fjord, King George Island, West Antarctic Peninsula

Ecological Indicators, 2021
We report strong evidence for the utility of ascidian communities as sentinel organisms for monitoring nearshore Antarctic marine ecosystem response to climate-induced warming and glacial melting. Ascidians are one of the most common Antarctic epibenthic

The invariant cleavage pattern displayed by ascidian embryos depends on spindle positioning along the cell's longest axis in the apical plane and relies on asynchronous cell divisions

eLife, 2017
The ascidian embryo is an ideal system to investigate how cell position is determined during embryogenesis. Using 3D timelapse imaging and computational methods we analyzed the planar cell divisions in ascidian early embryos and found that spindles in ...

Commensal Leucothoidae (Crustacea, Amphipoda) of the Ryukyu Archipelago, Japan. Part I: ascidian-dwellers

ZooKeys, 2012
Commensal leucothoid amphipods have been collected from the branchial chambers of their ascidian hosts throughout the Ryukyu Archipelago, Japan. Seven new species are described in two genera with valuable location data and host records. An identification

The chromosomal genome sequence of the photosymbiotic ascidian, Trididemnum clinides Kott, 1977 and its associated microbial metagenome sequences [version 2; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]

Wellcome Open Research
We present a genome assembly from a specimen of Trididemnum clinides (photosymbiotic ascidian; Chordata; Ascidiacea; Aplousobranchia; Didemnidae). The T. clinides genome sequence has a total length of 906.92 megabases.

Effects of Exposure to Trade Antifouling Paints and Biocides on Larval Settlement and Metamorphosis of the Compound Ascidian Botryllus schlosseri

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
To evaluate the effects of antifouling paints and biocides on larval settlement and metamorphosis, newly hatched swimming larvae of the compound ascidian Botryllus schlosseri, a dominant species of soft-fouling in coastal communities, were exposed to (i)

Behavioural Responses to Ultrasound Antifouling Systems by Adult Solitary Ascidians

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Ultrasonic antifouling devices are installed globally on a variety of vessel types and are marketed as an environmentally friendly method for biofouling control. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of ultrasound on adults of three species of
