Identification and characterisation of Botrylloides (Styelidae) species from Aotearoa New Zealand coasts [PDF]

open access: hybridNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 58, Issue 2, Page 255-273, June 2024., 2023
ABSTRACT Ascidians are marine filter‐feeder chordates. Botrylloides ascidians possess diverse biological properties such as whole‐body regeneration (WBR), hibernation/aestivation, blastogenesis, metamorphosis, and natural chimerism. However, the absence of distinctive morphological features often makes identification difficult.

High‐throughput sequencing on preservative ethanol is effective at jointly examining infraspecific and taxonomic diversity, although bioinformatics pipelines do not perform equally [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
High‐throughput sequencing of amplicons (HTSA) has been proposed as an effective approach to evaluate taxonomic and genetic diversity at the same time.

Characterization of Peptaibols Produced by a Marine Strain of the Fungus Trichoderma endophyticum via Mass Spectrometry, Genome Mining and Phylogeny-Based Prediction [PDF]

open access: yesMetabolites, 2023
Trichoderma is recognized as a prolific producer of nonribosomal peptides (NRPs) known as peptaibols, which have remarkable biological properties, such as antimicrobial and anticancer activities, as well as the ability to promote systemic resistance in ...

Whole body regeneration and developmental competition in two botryllid ascidians [PDF]

open access: yesEvoDevo, 2021
Background Botryllid ascidians are a group of marine invertebrate chordates that are colonial and grow by repeated rounds of asexual reproduction to form a colony of individual bodies, called zooids, linked by a common vascular network.

Brood pouch differentiation inBotrylloides violaceus, a viviparous ascidian (Tunicata)

open access: yesInvertebrate Reproduction & Development, 1998
Summary Botrylloides violaceus, a viviparous colonial ascidian, produces small alecithal eggs which develop into large tadpole larvae after a long period of gestation (about 1 month) in the colonial tunic. Unlike other botryllids, embryo development occurs in a brood pouch which soon becomes detached from the atrial epithelium to reach the colonial ...

First Record of Colonial Ascidian, Botrylloides diegensis Ritter and Forsyth, 1917 (Ascidiacea, Stolidobranchia, Styelidae), in South Korea [PDF]

open access: gold, 2021
Botrylloides species are important members of the fouling community colonizing artificial substrates in harbors and marinas. During monitoring in 2017–2020 of non-indigenous species in Korea, one colonial ascidian species was distinctly different from ...

Variation in Whole‐Body Regeneration Between Botrylloides Morphs and Species [PDF]

open access: hybridJournal of Marine Sciences, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Marine invertebrates exhibit an impressive regenerative capacity. Among these lineages, colonial ascidians possess the unique ability of whole‐body regeneration (WBR), in which a new adult (zooid) body is restored. Botrylloides species exemplify this regenerative capacity by regenerating new adults solely from vascular tissue within approximately 2 ...
