Abstract Aquatic organisms are natural data loggers and record chemical variations within hardened accretionary structures like shells and teeth. Chemical sclerochronology is the study of these chemical variations through time and how they are used to understand environmental change and the physiology and ecology of species.

Biodiversidade marinha da costa sul de Sagres. Identificação e caracterização de biótopos [PDF]
A necessidade de obter informação georreferenciada de habitats marinhos da costa portuguesa foi o principal motivador para a realização deste estudo. Sagres é reconhecido como sítio de importância comunitária, o que lhe confere redobrado interesse do ...

Global Variation in Zooplankton Niche Divergence Across Ocean Basins
We explored the evidence of niche divergence between population for marine zooplankton globally. We found 44% of all population comparisons show niche divergence. Niche divergence varied across temperature and bathymetry gradients for copepods. ABSTRACT Modelling responses to climate change assumes zooplankton populations remain similar over time with ...

A novel COL4A1 frameshift mutation in familial kidney disease: the importance of the C-terminal NC1 domain of type IV collagen [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Hereditary microscopic haematuria often segregates with mutations of COL4A3, COL4A4 or COL4A5 but in half of families a gene is not identified. We investigated a Cypriot family with autosomal dominant microscopic haematuria with renal failure

Systematic errors in phylogenomics with a focus on the major metazoan clade Deuterostomia [PDF]
Modern-day phylogenomics studies employ large data sets of many genes to resolve evolutionary relationships among many species. A typical phylogenomic workflow consists of certain steps: taxon sampling, orthology inference, marker selection and tree ...

We present a genome assembly from an individual Clavelina lepadiformis (the light-bulb sea squirt; Chordata; Ascidiacea; Aplousobranchia; Clavelinidae). The genome sequence is 210.1 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 9 chromosomal

The Touch of Nature Has Made the Whole World Kin: Interspecies Kin Selection in the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora [PDF]
The unequal distribution of legal protections on endangered species has been attributed to the “charisma” and “cuteness” of protected species. However, the theory of kin selection, which predicts the genetic relationship between organisms is proportional
