Comparative Molecular Insights into Developmental and Behavioral Toxicity Induced by Octocrylene and Ethylhexyl Salicylate Exposure on Zebrafish

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study compared the ecological toxicity of organic ultraviolet filters, octocrylene (OC) and ethylhexyl salicylate (EHS), on zebrafish embryos and larvae. EHS exhibited higher acute toxicity, causing increased mortality, hypoactive behavior at 50 mg/L, and disruptions in lipid homeostasis, while OC primarily affected hypoxia response and ...

Hox Gene Variation Drives Morphological Specialization of Humpback Grouper Cromileptes altivelis

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Cromileptes altivelis exhibits a distinctive “sunken head and humpback” morphology, formed through cranial remodeling. Genetic analyses identified unique amino acid variants in Hoxa7a and Hoxa10b, with functional tests confirming their role in enhancing osteoblast activity and driving cranial remodeling.

Transcriptomics Unveil Dsx1 as a Critical Regulator in Sexual Dimorphism of Crustaceans

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Sexually dimorphic traits are involved in reproductive competition and are shaped by sex‐biased gene expression. This study identifies Dsx1 as a key male‐biased gene in Morinoia aosen and demonstrates through RNA interference that its disruption feminizes male‐specific T3 leg structures.

Boat Noise Is Associated With Reduced Behavioral Lateralization in Juvenile Large Yellow Croaker (Larimichthys crocea)

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Our results show that boat noise is associated with weaker expression of turning bias, poorer behavioral performance, elevated oxygen consumption, and concurrent gut‐associated shifts in juvenile Larimichthys crocea. These findings suggest that anthropogenic noise may influence not only physiological condition, but also behavioral phenotypes ...

A Multi‐Stakeholder Alliance for Climate Governance: Cities and Regions Need Seats at the COP Table

open access: yesGlobal Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Today's global climate policy suffers from a mismatch between governance demand and supply. The practice of climate governance showcases serious shortcomings. Globally, climate targets are agreed but not implemented. At the regional level, especially African stakeholders feel that, by global comparison, their continent is suffering more from ...

Are Corals Colorful?

Photochemistry and Photobiology, 2006
ABSTRACTUsing in situ spectrometry data and visual system modeling, we investigate whether the colors conferred to the reef‐building corals by GFP‐like proteins would look colorful not only to humans, but also to fish occupying different ecological niches on the reef.

The Coral Hospital

Biopreservation and Biobanking, 2019
Herein we propose an ambitious confrontation of the current coral reef crisis through the establishment of a “Coral Hospital.” In an analogous manner to a human hospital, “sick” corals will first be diagnosed either in situ or in the hospital's diagnostic “clinic” such that the root cause of ...

Coral restoration: beyond coral production and coral outplanting 

Coral restoration has been targeted as one of the major priorities to cope with the rapid loss of shallow coral reefs in tropical oceans. For years coral restoration has focused on developing techniques and technologies aimed at rapid and cost-effective production of corals and ways to outplant to cover wide spatial scales. While this approach is valid,

Neoplasia in a Coral?

Science, 1965
Anomalous growths of the colonial, deep-water coral Madrepora kauaiensis are interpreted as neoplasia. Since tissue was not preserved, evidence is derived solely from skeletal examination and consists of unusually rapid growth and progressively disordered growth of skeletal structures.
