The phylogenetic position of ctenophores and the origin(s) of nervous systems [PDF]
, 2015 Ctenophores have traditionally been treated as eumetazoans, but some recent whole genome studies have revived the idea that they are, rather, the sister group to all other metazoans.

Metazoan Diversity and Its Drivers: An eDNA Survey in the Pacific Gateway of a Changing Arctic Ocean
Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 2, March/April 2025.In the face of climate change, organisms must adapt or shift their ranges to survive. Our study conducted the first COI marker‐based eDNA survey in the Pacific Gateway of the Arctic Ocean, analyzing seawater samples from the Bering Strait and Chukchi Sea.

Parallel evolution of gravity sensing
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental BiologyOmnipresent gravity affects all living organisms; it was a vital factor in the past and the current bottleneck for future space exploration. However, little is known about the evolution of gravity sensing and the comparative biology of gravity reception.

The Ribosomal Operon Database: A Full‐Length rDNA Operon Database Derived From Genome Assemblies
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2025.ABSTRACT Current rDNA reference sequence databases are tailored towards shorter DNA markers, such as parts of the 16/18S marker or the internally transcribed spacer (ITS) region. However, due to advances in long‐read DNA sequencing technologies, longer stretches of the rDNA operon are increasingly used in environmental sequencing studies to increase ...

Species Distribution Models for Mesopelagic Mesozooplankton Community
Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 1, Page 13-26, January 2025.ABSTRACT Aim We aimed to enhance our understanding of the distribution of mesopelagic mesozooplankton (MM) using species distribution models, assess the performance of various modelling techniques, identify key environmental predictors for MM distribution and compute their habitat suitability indices.

Deepwater Sharks at Their Northern Limits—Distribution, Diet and Trophic Relations
Marine Ecology, Volume 46, Issue 1, January 2025.ABSTRACT Deepwater areas and continental slope regions south and west off Iceland are characterized by a relatively high species diversity and abundance of sharks that likely play a critical ecological role within this ecosystem. The study investigates trophic ecology of the sharks employing stomach content analysis and stable isotope analysis of ...
