Slit-Robo expression in the leech nervous system: insights into eyespot evolution
Cell & Bioscience, 2023 Background Slit and Robo are evolutionarily conserved ligand and receptor proteins, respectively, but the number of slit and robo gene paralogs varies across recent bilaterian genomes.

Cladistics, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 283-303, June 2025.Abstract Using a new character matrix composed of revised matrices of previous analyses and new morphological findings, the phylogeny of Malacostraca (Pancrustacea) is analysed anew with 207 characters for 35 terminal taxa across all recognized orders. Particular emphasis was placed on methodological versatility, including different degrees of implied ...

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2020 Pigment dispersing factors (PDFs, or PDHs in crustaceans) form a structurally related group of neuropeptides found throughout the Ecdysozoa and were first discovered as pigmentary effector hormones in crustaceans.

Breakdown of coevolution between symbiotic bacteria Wolbachia and their filarial hosts [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Wolbachia is an alpha-proteobacterial symbiont widely distributed in arthropods. Since the identification of Wolbachia in certain animal-parasitic nematodes (the Onchocercidae or filariae), the relationship between arthropod and nematode Wolbachia has ...

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 2, Page 920-935, April 2025.ABSTRACT Mitochondria are dynamic and plastic, undergoing continuous fission and fusion and rearrangement of their bioenergetic sub‐compartments called cristae. These fascinating processes are best understood in animal and fungal models, which are taxonomically grouped together in the expansive Opisthokonta supergroup.

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 27, Issue 1, January 2025.The main differences between the ‘Ca. Hepatincolaceae’ and the Holosporales are their habitats and modes of existence. The former are non‐motile bacteria that exist extracellularly in the host gut lumen, associating with microvilli, while the latter are intracellular bacteria, primarily hosted by protists such as amoebae and ciliates, and often possess

A peritidal Burgess‐Shale‐type fauna from the middle Cambrian of western Canada
Palaeontology, Volume 68, Issue 1, January/February 2025.Abstract Burgess‐Shale‐type (BST) faunas have proven critical for mapping the Cambrian assembly of animal‐dominated ecosystems, but have so far only been reported from fully subaqueous deposits. Here we integrate evidence from ichnofossils, sedimentary features, and small carbonaceous fossils (SCFs) from the middle Cambrian (Late Guzhangian, Series 3 ...

The Opisthokonta and the Ecdysozoa may be clades: An update on Philip et al. (2005) [PDF]
, 2009 To test the monophyly of Opisthokonta (animal-fungal clade) and Ecdysozoa (nematode-arthropod clade), Philip et al [Mol. Biol. Evol. 22: 1175–1184 (2005)] used sequence data from 10 eukaryotic genomes (an alveolate, a plant, two ascomycetous ...
