ABSTRACT With the possibility of deep‐sea mining of mineral resources occurring, it is necessary to understand potential impacts on benthic communities. Previous simulated mining experiments revealed direct benthic impacts; however, indirect impacts of sedimentation are not well understood.

Role of hemocytes in invertebrate adult neurogenesis and brain repair [PDF]
The repair of lesions of the central nervous system (CNS) varies widely throughout the animal kingdom. At the level of neuronal replacement lie the major differences in CNS regeneration.

ABSTRACT Biological invasions are one of the major drivers of biodiversity decline and have been shown to have far‐reaching consequences for society and the economy. Preventing the introduction and spread of alien species represents the most effective solution to reducing their impacts on nature and human well‐being.

This study provides an in-depth examination of the ecological interaction between the non-native Diadumene lineata (Verrill, 1869) sea anemone, and the Polysyncraton amethysteum Van Name, 1902 colonial ascidian.

Tunic Cell Morphology and Classification in Botryllid Ascidians(Morphology) [PDF]
The morphology of tunic cells was investigated in ten botryllid ascidians, six Botryllus and four Botrylloides species, by means of light and electron microscopy. Three types of tunic cells were described, I.e.

ABSTRACT Major threats to marine species and ecosystems include overfishing, invasive species, pollution and climate change. The changing climate not only imposes direct threats through the impacts of severe marine heatwaves, cyclones and ocean acidification but also complicates fisheries and invasive species management by driving species range shifts.

Ascidians are among the most common invasive marine invertebrates worldwide. Many species of non-indigenous ascidians (NIAs) have successfully colonized the Mediterranean Sea, notably within anthropized coastal lagoons and harbors.

ON THE OCCURRENCE OF COLONY SPECIFICITY IN SOME COMPOUND ASCIDIANS
1. The presence or absence of colony specificity, i.e., the recognition of self and not-self in colonial organisms, has been investigated with several species of compound Ascidians. If the reaction resulted from contact either between growing edges or between cut surfaces of colonies, fusion, rejection and indifference have been distinguished. Of these

ABSTRACT The solitary ascidian Ascidiella aspersa is an emerging invasive species in coastal ecosystems worldwide, including Korean waters. We developed and validated a species‐specific quantitative PCR (qPCR) assay targeting the mitochondrial COI gene, showing high specificity against 128 non‐target taxa and robust performance (Efficiency = 110.1%, R2
