Cephalopod-omics: Emerging Fields and Technologies in Cephalopod Biology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Synopsis Few animal groups can claim the level of wonder that cephalopods instill in the minds of researchers and the general public. Much of cephalopod biology, however, remains unexplored: the largest invertebrate brain, difficult husbandry conditions,

Born With Bristles: New Insights on the Kölliker’s Organs of Octopus Skin

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The entire skin surface of octopus embryos, hatchlings and juveniles bears scattered tufts of tiny chitinous setae within small pockets, from which they can be everted and retracted.

Genetic mechanisms involved in the evolution of the cephalopod camera eye revealed by transcriptomic and developmental studies

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011
Background Coleoid cephalopods (squids and octopuses) have evolved a camera eye, the structure of which is very similar to that found in vertebrates and which is considered a classic example of convergent evolution.

Characterization of Insulin-like Peptide (ILP) and Its Potential Role in Ovarian Development of the Cuttlefish Sepiella japonica

open access: yesCurrent Issues in Molecular Biology, 2022
The insulin-like peptide (ILP) family is well known for regulating reproduction in invertebrates, while its role in mollusks remains largely unknown. In this study, we first isolated and characterized the ILP gene in the cuttlefish Sepiella japonica. The

The Characteristics and Expression Profile of Peptidoglycan Recognition Protein 2 in the Accessory Nidamental Gland of the Bigfin Reef Squid During Bacterial Colonization

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Some cephalopods carry microorganisms in two specialized organs, the light organ and the accessory nidamental gland (ANG). For the light organ, comprehensive mechanisms have been described for winnowing (bacterial selection) and maintenance of the ...

Camouflage and Exploratory Avoidance of Newborn Cuttlefish under Warming and Acidification

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Ocean warming and acidification have been shown to elicit deleterious effects on cephalopod mollusks, especially during early ontogeny, albeit effects on behavior remain largely unexplored.

Sensorial Hierarchy in Octopus vulgaris’s Food Choice: Chemical vs. Visual

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
Octopus vulgaris possesses highly sophisticated sense organs, processed by the nervous system to generate appropriate behaviours such as finding food, avoiding predators, identifying conspecifics, and locating suitable habitat.

Global Warming and Mass Extinctions Associated With Large Igneous Province Volcanism

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 83-102., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
