Progress and Challenges in Phylogenomics and Genomics of Lophotrochozoa/Spiralia
Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 521-544, July 2026.ABSTRACT Lophotrochozoa is one of the three major bilaterian groups comprising more than half of the bilaterian phyla. Lophotrochozoa includes among others Mollusca, Annelida, Platyhelminthes and Rotifera. Despite representing such a large proportion of animal diversity, they are historically understudied and genomic resources have been scarce. However,

The study of Priapulus caudatus reveals conserved molecular patterning underlying different gut morphogenesis in the Ecdysozoa [PDF]
, 2015 Background The digestive systems of animals can become highly specialized in response to their exploration and occupation of new ecological niches. Although studies on different animals have revealed commonalities in gut formation, the model systems ...

A cause for consilience: Utilizing multiple genomic data types to resolve problematic nodes within Arthropoda and Ecdysozoa [PDF]
, 2012 A major turning point in the study of metazoan evolution was the recognition of the existence of the Ecdysozoa in 1997. This is a group of eight animal phyla (Nematoda, Nematomorpha, Loricifera, Kinorhyncha, Priapulida, Tardigrada, Onychophora and ...

Insights into the microRNA landscape of Rhodnius prolixus, a vector of Chagas disease
Scientific Reports, 2023 The growing interest in microRNAs (miRNAs) over recent years has led to their characterization in numerous organisms. However, there is currently a lack of data available on miRNAs from triatomine bugs (Reduviidae: Triatominae), which are the vectors of ...

Cuticular microfragments from the lower Cambrian Yanjiahe Formation, China: insights into ecdysozoan biodiversity at the dawn of animal radiation [PDF]
Journal of MicropalaeontologyEcdysozoa (molting animals) represent one of the most diverse and ecologically successful animal groups in both extant and fossil ecosystems. This study presents new microfossil cuticular evidence from the lower Cambrian (∼535 Ma) Yanjiahe Formation ...

The Resilience of Life to Astrophysical Events
Scientific Reports, 2017 Much attention has been given in the literature to the effects of astrophysical events on human and land-based life. However, little has been discussed on the resilience of life itself.
