The early expansion and evolutionary dynamics of POU class genes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The POU genes represent a diverse class of animal-specific transcription factors that play important roles in neurogenesis, pluripotency, and cell-type specification. Although previous attempts have been made to reconstruct the evolution of the POU class,

The complete mitogenome of ghost jellyfish Cyanea nozakii (Cnidaria, Semaeostomeae, Cyaneidae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018
The cnidarian jellyfishes are impressive organisms to show animal mitochondrial genomic diversities. Their mitogenome structure is linear and tRNA content has one or two in numbers, which is highly different than other metazoans.

Detection and distribution of Craspedacusta sowerbii: Observations of medusae are not enough [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The freshwater cnidarian Craspedacusta sowerbii, native to the Yangtze valley, has invaded lakes and ponds throughout the world. Most distribution records have to date been based on observations of the medusa (jellyfish) stage, including numerous recent ...

Glabralysins, potential New β-pore-forming toxin family members from the schistosomiasis vector snail biomphalaria glabrata [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Biomphalaria glabrata is a freshwater Planorbidae snail. In its environment, this mollusk faces numerous microorganisms or pathogens, and has developed sophisticated innate immune mechanisms to survive.

Phylogenomics provides a robust topology of the major cnidarian lineages and insights on the origins of key organismal traits

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2018
Background The phylogeny of Cnidaria has been a source of debate for decades, during which nearly all-possible relationships among the major lineages have been proposed.

Sea Anemones Responding to Sex Hormones, Oxybenzone, and Benzyl Butyl Phthalate: Transcriptional Profiling and in Silico Modelling Provide Clues to Decipher Endocrine Disruption in Cnidarians

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Endocrine disruption is suspected in cnidarians, but questions remain how occurs. Steroid sex hormones are detected in corals and sea anemones even though these animals do not have estrogen receptors and their repertoire of steroidogenic enzymes appears ...

Transcriptomic Insights into the Diversity and Evolution of Myxozoa (Cnidaria, Endocnidozoa) Toxin-like Proteins

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2022
Myxozoa is a speciose group of endoparasitic cnidarians that can cause severe ecological and economic effects. Their cnidarian affinity is affirmed by genetic relatedness and the presence of nematocysts, historically called “polar capsules”.

A comparative study of populations of Ectopleura crocea and Ectopleura ralphi (Hydrozoa, Tubulariidae) from the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Ectopleura crocea (L. Agassiz, 1862) and Ectopleura ralphi (Bale, 1884) are two of the nominal tubulariid species re-corded for the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), presumably with wide but disjunct geographical ranges and similar morphologies.

Mechanisms and Drivers for the Establishment of Life Cycle Complexity in Myxozoan Parasites

open access: yesBiology, 2020
It is assumed that complex life cycles in cnidarian parasites belonging to the Myxozoa result from incorporation of vertebrates into simple life cycles exploiting aquatic invertebrates.
