Metamorphosis in solitary ascidians [PDF]
genesis, 2014 SummaryEmbryonic and postembryonic development in ascidians have been studied for over a century, but it is only in the last 10 years that the complex molecular network involved in coordinating postlarval development and metamorphosis has started to emerge.

Symbiotic Associations in Ascidians: Relevance for Functional Innovation and Bioactive Potential
Marine Drugs, 2021 Associations between different organisms have been extensively described in terrestrial and marine environments. These associations are involved in roles as diverse as nutrient exchanges, shelter or adaptation to adverse conditions.

Insights into unique anatomical structures of the ascidian Halocynthia papillosa obtained by multimodal imaging [PDF]
Communications BiologyCurrent understanding of anatomical structures of ascidians remains limited. This study presents multimodal imaging techniques, including Light, Thunder, and fluorescent confocal microscopy, to investigate neural structures and the tunic of Halocynthia ...

Ascidians Outbreak: A Threat For Coral Reefs in Panjang Island, Jepara
Jurnal Kelautan Tropis, 2021 Eutrophication and sedimentation have become a major threat to coral reefs in nearby areas with anthropogenic activities. These threats are often accompanied by shifting ecosystems from coral-rich to fast-growing algae-dominated water, and high ...

Ascidian notochord morphogenesis [PDF]
Developmental Dynamics, 2007 AbstractThe development of the notochord involves a complex set of cellular behaviors. While these morphogenic behaviors are common to all chordates, the ascidian provides a particularly attractive experimental model because of its relative simplicity. In particular, all notochord morphogenesis in ascidians takes place with only 40 cells, as opposed to

An otx/nodal regulatory signature for posterior neural development in ascidians. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2014 In chordates, neural induction is the first step of a complex developmental process through which ectodermal cells acquire a neural identity. In ascidians, FGF-mediated neural induction occurs at the 32-cell stage in two blastomere pairs, precursors ...
