Journal of Food Science, Volume 91, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Cellular aquaculture offers a sustainable solution to global seafood demand, yet the production of high‐value, whole‐cut fillets is hindered by the “texture gap,” the inability to replicate the complex, anisotropic architecture of native fish muscle and its collagenous myosepta.

Eocene phymaraphiniid demosponges from South Western Australia: filling the gap
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2023 We describe two new genera of phymaraphiniid lithistid sponges Twertupia gen. nov. and Pickettispongia gen. nov. from the upper Eocene Pallinup Formation of South Western (SW) Australia based on new, rich and very well preserved material. Type material

Towards Key Principles of Host‐Associated Microbiome Assembly
Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 6, June 2026.Symbiotic relationships between microbes and hosts frequently involve the assembly of complex microbial communities (i.e., the microbiome). Microbiome composition and function influence host life‐history traits, ecological trajectories of partners, and are often critical for host health.

First Report on Chitin in a Non-Verongiid Marine Demosponge: The Mycale euplectellioides Case
Marine Drugs, 2018 Sponges (Porifera) are recognized as aquatic multicellular organisms which developed an effective biochemical pathway over millions of years of evolution to produce both biologically active secondary metabolites and biopolymer-based skeletal structures ...

Arrested in Glass: Actin within Sophisticated Architectures of Biosilica in Sponges
Advanced Science, 2022 Actin is a fundamental member of an ancient superfamily of structural intracellular proteins and plays a crucial role in cytoskeleton dynamics, ciliogenesis, phagocytosis, and force generation in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

Recovering Historical eDNA From Museum‐Preserved Filter Feeders via Non‐Destructive Metabarcoding
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.ABSTRACT Recent technical advances have significantly enhanced the value of museum specimens for molecular research, with metagenomic and metabarcoding approaches expanding further the utility of museum collections. However, given the finite number of specimens, there is a critical need to move past destructive DNA extraction approaches and to explore ...

Pumping Rate and Size of Demosponges—Towards an Understanding Using Modeling
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Filter-feeding sponges pump large amounts of water and contribute significantly to grazing impact, matter transport and nutrient cycling in many marine benthic communities.

In situ Pumping Rate of 20 Marine Demosponges Is a Function of Osculum Area
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Sponges play a key role in the transfer of energy and nutrients into many benthic ecosystems, and the volume of water they process is an important regulator of these fluxes. Theoretical scaling relationships between sponge volume, osculum cross-sectional

Associations of Commercial Fisheries and Cold‐Water Corals and Sponges
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 116-129, March 2026.Three metrics for determining whether the marine life that are landed by commercial fisheries are associated with cold‐water corals and sponges: (a) Adjacent; (b) General Proximity; and (c) Habitat. The relationship between these structure forming invertebrates (SFI) and fisheries is robust across analytical approaches.
