Genomic Insights Into Early‐Stage Selective Filtering During the Transport Stage of Biological Invasions

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, Volume 18, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Marine biological invasions, increasingly facilitated by maritime transport, represent a major dimension of global change, threatening biodiversity, ecosystem services, and human well‐being worldwide. Although the factors shaping invasion success have been widely studied, the evolutionary processes occurring during the transport stage remain ...

Fauna living in colonies of Mussismilia hispida (Verrill) (Cnidaria: Scleractinia) in four South-eastern Brazil islands

open access: yesBrazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2003
Colonies of Mussismilia hispida were collected in four south-eastern Brazil islands and fixed in formalin. Volume, living and basal areas of each coral head were measured.

Feeding cessation alters host morphology and bacterial communities in the ascidian Pseudodistoma crucigaster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
11 páginas, 2 tablas, 7 figurasBackground: Ascidians can associate with abundant and diverse consortia ofmicrobial symbionts, yet these communities remain unexamined for the majority of host ascidians and little is known about host-symbiont interactions.

Settlement Patterns of Corals and other Benthos on Reefs with Divergent Environments and Disturbances Histories around the Northeastern Arabian Peninsula

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2017
Larval supply is a principal factor determining the establishment, structure, and diversity of sessile benthic assemblages on coral reefs. Benthic reef communities in north-eastern Arabia have been subject to recurrent disturbances in recent years, and ...

Amyloid and allorecognition in the colonial ascidian Botryllus schlosseri. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Allorecognition, i.e., the ability of intraspecific nonself recognition is widely distributed among colonial, sessile marine organisms in the form of colony specificity. In the cosmopolitan compound ascidian Botryllus schlosseri, colony specificity is controlled by a highly polymorphic Fu/HC locus: two colonies sharing at least one alleleat the Fu/HC ...

Tunicate-associated bacteria show a great potential for the discovery of antimicrobial compounds.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Tunicates (Ascidians, sea squirts) are marine protochordates, which live sedentary or sessile in colonial or solitary forms. These invertebrates have to protect themselves against predators and invaders.

Prochloron research [PDF]

open access: yes
The purpose was to prepare Prochloron photosynthetic membranes for the isolation of the two major chlorophyll-proteins, the P700-chlorophyll a-protein and the light-harvesting chlorophyll a/b-protein, using SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Marine epibiosis. III. Possible antifouling defense adaptations in Polysyncraton lacazei (Giard) (Didemnidae, Ascidiacea) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
Polysyncraton lacazei (Giard), a colonial tunicate of the western Mediterranean, seems to be well-protected against epibiosis. Out of several thousand potential colonizers estimated, only one kamptozoan species, Loxocalyx sp., is found with some ...
