When lingulid brachiopods became infaunal(?) – perspectives from the morphological and anatomical information [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023
Morphology usually serves as an effective proxy for functional ecology, and the evaluation of morphological, anatomical, and ecological changes allows for a deeper understanding of the nature of diversification and macroevolution.

The Rhynchonellide Brachiopod Cyclothyris ? globata (Arnaud, 1877) from the Santonian-Campanian of Pannonides, Carpatho-Balkanides and Dinarides, South-Eastern Europe [PDF]

open access: yesGeološki Anali Balkanskoga Poluostrva, 2002
The asymmetric rhynchonellide brachiopods Rhynchonella difformis Valenciennes in Lamarck and R. contorta d'Orbigny were often mentioned in the stratigraphic literature on Santonian-Campanian outcrops of the Pannonides, Carpatho-Balkanides and Dinarides ...

Cemented on the Rock. A Pleistocene Outer Shelf Lithobiont Community from Sicily, Italy

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
The lithobiont community encrusting an early Pleistocene palaeocliff cropping out north of Augusta (SE Sicily, Italy) was investigated based on field observations and laboratory inspection of two rocky samples.

Brachiopod and mollusc biomineralisation is a conserved process that was lost in the phoronid–bryozoan stem lineage

open access: yesEvoDevo, 2022
Background Brachiopods and molluscs are lophotrochozoans with hard external shells which are often believed to have evolved convergently. While palaeontological data indicate that both groups are descended from biomineralising Cambrian ancestors, the ...

Monophyly of brachiopods and phoronids: reconciliation of molecular evidence with Linnaean classification (the subphylum Phoroniformea nov.) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Molecular phylogenetic analyses of aligned 18S rDNA gene sequences from articulate and inarticulate brachiopods representing all major extant lineages, an enhanced set of phoronids and several unrelated protostome taxa, confirm previous indications that ...

Horizontal Transfer and Gene Loss Shaped the Evolution of Alpha-Amylases in Bilaterians

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020
The subfamily GH13_1 of alpha-amylases is typical of Fungi, but it is also found in some unicellular eukaryotes (e.g., Amoebozoa, choanoflagellates) and non-bilaterian Metazoa.

Molecular phylogeny of brachiopods and phoronids based on nuclear-encoded small subunit ribosomal RNA gene sequences [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Brachiopod and phoronid phylogeny is inferred from SSU rDNA sequences of 28 articulate and nine inarticulate brachiopods, three phoronids, two ectoprocts and various outgroups, using gene trees reconstructed by weighted parsimony, distance and maximum ...
