A georeferenced dataset of Italian occurrence records of the phylum Rotifera

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2023
We report a dataset of known and published occurrence records of Italian taxa from species (and subspecies) to family rank of the phylum Rotifera; we considered only Bdelloidea, Monogononta, and Seisonacea, and did not include Acanthocephala. The dataset

Applicability of environmental DNA metabarcoding for the hyporheic zone of a stream bed

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 6, Page 1667-1678, November 2023., 2023
To understand whole riverine biodiversity, including hyporheric zones, it is necessary to develop a method to easily and accurately detect hyporheos communities in hyporheic zones, which currently remains poorly understood. Using eDNA metabarcoding for cytochrome‐c oxidase subunit I (COI) regions, we successfully detected various hyporheos and benthos ...

Higher alpha and gamma, but not beta diversity in tropical than in Mediterranean temporary ponds: A multi‐taxon spatiotemporal approach

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 68, Issue 10, Page 2402-2414, October 2023., 2023
Abstract The latitudinal diversity gradient predicts that tropical regions should have higher alpha, beta, and gamma diversity than temperate areas. However, only a few studies have assessed the temporal variability of the different components of diversity across climatic regions.

Soil Rotifers new to Hungary from the floodplain Gemenc (Duna-Dráva National Park, Hungary) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
In summer and autumn 2010, we collected soil samples from the Gemenc floodplain of the Danube (Duna-Dráva National Park) from places with different flood regimes and vegetation cover and examined them for rotifers.

Under‐ice plankton community response to snow removal experiment in bog lake

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 68, Issue 5, Page 1001-1018, May 2023., 2023
Abstract Although previously overlooked, winter is now seen as a period of significant biological activity in the annual cycle of north‐temperate lakes. Research suggests a future of reduced ice cover duration and altered snow conditions could significantly change the functioning of aquatic ecosystems.

Eurotatorian paraphyly: Revisiting phylogenetic relationships based on the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Rotaria rotatoria (Bdelloidea: Rotifera: Syndermata)

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2009
Background The Syndermata (Rotifera+Acanthocephala) is one of the best model systems for studying the evolutionary origins and persistence of different life styles because it contains a series of lineage-specific life histories: Monogononta (cyclic ...

An evaluation of crustacean and rotifer diversity and composition in a temporary pond metacommunity: Comparing results from field samples and a hatching experiment

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 68, Issue 3, Page 378-390, March 2023., 2023
Abstract Many aquatic invertebrates that inhabit temporary ponds produce resting forms to overcome the dry period, building up the egg bank. When the wet phase returns, the resting forms hatch and the community is restored, and then pioneer species may have a major influence on how the pond community will assemble. We aimed to evaluate the diversity of

Transcriptome data reveal Syndermatan relationships and suggest the evolution of endoparasitism in Acanthocephala via an epizoic stage.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The taxon Syndermata comprises the biologically interesting wheel animals ("Rotifera": Bdelloidea + Monogononta + Seisonidea) and thorny-headed worms (Acanthocephala), and is central for testing superordinate phylogenetic hypotheses (Platyzoa, Gnathifera)

Fine structure of the retrocerebral organ in the rotifer Trichocerca similis (Monogononta)

open access: yesInvertebrate Biology, Volume 142, Issue 1, March 2023., 2023
Abstract The retrocerebral organ (RCO) is a complex glandular system that is widely distributed across species of phylum Rotifera (sensu stricto). This system is hypothesized to secrete mucus that aids in benthic locomotion, adhesion, and/or reproduction.

EST based phylogenomics of Syndermata questions monophyly of Eurotatoria

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2008
Background The metazoan taxon Syndermata comprising Rotifera (in the classical sense of Monogononta+Bdelloidea+Seisonidea) and Acanthocephala has raised several hypotheses connected to the phylogeny of these animal groups and the included subtaxa.
