Metabarcoding of Sediment eDNA Uncovers Ecological Gradients and Biodiversity in Philippine Mangroves

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Community diversity metrics revealed a clear ecological gradient, with the highest diversity observed in recolonized mature stands, intermediate in the natural stands, and lowest in the restored stands. Taxonomic profiles varied with mangrove stand, age, and zonation.

Diterpenoid Diversity across Land Plants

open access: yesHelvetica Chimica Acta, Volume 109, Issue 4, April 2026.
Here we bridge the knowledge of diterpene chemical diversity, biosynthesis, and evolution from nonvascular mosses and liverworts to that known from vascular plants. ABSTRACT The diverse array of diterpenoid natural products stems from the ease of manipulating the promiscuity of diterpene cyclases.

Microbial diversity in four Mediterranean irciniid sponges [PDF]

open access: yesBiodiversity Data Journal
This paper describes a dataset of microbial communities from four different sponge species: Ircinia oros (Schmidt, 1864), Ircinia variabilis (Schmidt, 1862), Sarcotragus spinosulus Schmidt, 1862 and Sarcotragus fasciculatus (Pallas, 1766).

Comparative Multi‐Marker Environmental DNA Metabarcoding of Marine Metazoan Communities: Water vs. Sediment

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the metazoan biodiversity in the Southern Adriatic Sea using environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding. Sediment and adjacent water samples were collected from three sites (one pristine, two impacted by human activities) at three distances from the coast across two seasons.

Low Abundance Taxa Show Diverse Microbial Symbiotic Interactions With the Freshwater Sponge, Radiospongilla crateriformis, Pre and Post Gemmulation

open access: yesEnvironmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
The microbiome profile of freshwater sponges did not broadly change in taxonomy or functional profile based on metatranscriptome analysis prior to and after formation of sponge dormant bodies (gemmules). Results highlight a subset of taxa that likely associate with the sponge host in different ways from facultative to long‐term symbionts.

The chromosomal genome sequence of the fragile freshwater sponge, Eunapius fragilis (Leidy, 1851) and its associated microbial metagenome sequences [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research
We present a genome assembly from a specimen of Eunapius fragilis (fragile freshwater sponge; Porifera; Demospongiae; Spongillida; Spongillidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 218.91 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.98%) is scaffolded into

Two new species in the family Axinellidae (Porifera, Demospongiae) from British Columbia and adjacent waters

open access: yesZooKeys, 2013
Two new species of Demospongiae are described for British Columbia and adjacent waters in the family Axinellidae, Auletta krautteri sp. n. and Dragmacidon kishinensis sp. n. They represent range extensions for both of these genera.

Barcoding‐Inferred Biodiversity of Shallow‐Water Indo‐Pacific Demosponges

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim The Indo‐Pacific is the world's largest marine biogeographic region. It is characterised by different degrees of connectivity among its subregions and harbours the majority of demosponge species currently known to science. Comparisons between regional sponge faunas have been undertaken in the past, mostly based on morphological species ...
