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 ...

The freshwater bryozoan Plumatella fruticosa has been ambiguously discussed, as it shows characters of several phylactolaemate clades. Besides the serrated body wall our morphological analysis found myoanatomical details unique for this species. Proportions of the digestive tract and tentacle sheath, the musculature of the latter, and lamellae of the ...

Gender differences in the immune system activities of sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus [PDF]
In the immune system of vertebrates, gender-specific differences in individual immune competence are well known. In general, females possess more powerful immune response than males. In invertebrates, the situation is much less clear. For this purpose we
