Molecular Evolution and Gene Diversity of Dermatan Sulfate Sulfotransferases in Ascidians
ABSTRACT Ascidians (Chordata, Tunicata) are model organisms for studying molecules, particularly sulfated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), due to their phylogenetic proximity to vertebrates and unique GAG variants. Over‐sulfated dermatan sulfate (DS) contributes to proteoglycan diversity and cellular processes in metazoans.

New data on C1qDC from the colonial ascidian Botryllus schlosseri
In the compound ascidian Botryllus schlosseri, we recently identified a novel C1q-domain-containing (C1qDC) protein expressed by circulating immunocytes, called BsC1qDC.

Morula cells and non-self recognition in the compound ascidian Botryllus schlosseri [PDF]
In the ascidian Botryllus schlosseri, we studied the effects of hemocyte incubation with foreign cells, such as bacteria, bacterial spores and yeast. In the presence of yeast and bacterial spores, morula cells, a common cell type in botryllid ascidians ...

Multi‐Scaled Cellulosic Nanonetworks from Tunicates
Microbial and plant nanonetworks of cellulose have enabled a wide range of high‐performance yet sustainable materials. Herein, a third class of cellulosic nanonetworks is showcased by exploiting the only animal tissue‐producing cellulose nanofibers, i.e., ascidians. An ultrastructure including spherical cells and a microvasculature with diameters of 50–

Connectivity and Population Structure in a Marginal Sea—A Review
ABSTRACT Aim The current biodiversity crisis calls for conservation measures that limit or reduce the negative human impact on key habitats and vulnerable wild populations. To effectively protect biodiversity at all levels, including intra‐specific diversity, conservation measures should, ideally, be aligned with the connectivity and genetic structure ...

Abstract Biofouling‐induced increases in labor costs are among the most impactful factors determining the technoeconomic feasibility and profitability of aquaculture operations. Understanding how different cultivation methods and environmental conditions influence the severity of biofouling is crucial to support informed decision‐making by farmers and ...

Squishy and Crunchy Invasive Invertebrates: Environmental DNA Is Not Shed Equally
Environmental DNA has been used to detect invasive species in aquatic ecosystems with varying degrees of success. Here, using laboratory experiments and a two‐year time series, we found that squishy species (those lacking an exoskeleton) generally shed eDNA consistently with their abundance, whereas crunchy species (those with a shell or exoskeleton ...
