Establishment of the immunological self in juvenile Patiria pectinifera post-metamorphosis
Ontogeny of the immune system is a fundamental immunology issue. One indicator of immune system maturation is the establishment of the immunological self, which describes the ability of the immune system to distinguish allogeneic individuals ...

In this paper, we find the currently applied sea urchin measurement techniques are not standardized, have high measurement errors and are labour‐intensive. Therefore, we develop a protocol requiring no specialised equipment and open‐source software that precisely and rapidly quantifies urchin wet mass and diameter.

Highly efficient optogenetic cell ablation in C. elegans using membrane-targeted miniSOG. [PDF]
The genetically encoded photosensitizer miniSOG (mini Singlet Oxygen Generator) can be used to kill cells in C. elegans. miniSOG generates the reactive oxygen species (ROS) singlet oxygen after illumination with blue light.

Asymmetrical hybridization and gene flow between Eisenia andrei and E. fetida lumbricid earthworms [PDF]
Uniformly pigmented Eisenia andrei (Ea) and striped E. fetida (Ef) lumbricid earthworms are hermaphrodites capable of self-fertilization, cross-fertilization, and asymmetrical hybridization.

Oocyte maturation and release (spawning) in starfish are triggered by relaxin‐like gonad‐stimulating peptide (RGP), which exerts its effects by stimulating ovarian follicle cells to produce 1‐methyladenine. Here, we present evidence that gonoducts (Gd) located proximal to the ovaries (O) are the physiological source of RGP that triggers spawning in ...
