Echinoderm TIMP Sequences

open access: yes, 2015
The file contains sequences that belong to the TIMP gene family (tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases). Different alignments represent the results of successive culling procedures to remove possible non-homologues.

Aquaculture of emerging species in North-Eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea: a systematic review on sea cucumber farming and potential development

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Sea cucumbers are considered a traditional food delicacy in Asian countries. In last decades high market demand, uncontrolled exploitation and inadequate management have led to stock overexploitation, driving commercial interest in new target species and

Conditioning cultured Diadema antillarum through uncaged mid‐water grow‐out shifts behavior and morphology

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction The long‐spined black sea urchin Diadema antillarum is a keystone herbivore on Caribbean reefs, yet population recovery following mass mortality events has been slow and spatially variable. Restocking programs increasingly rely on aquaculture, but rearing conditions may generate behavioral and morphological shifts that affect post‐

Echinoderm Nervous System

open access: yes, 2018
The nervous system of echinoderms has been studied for well over a century. Nonetheless, the information available is disparate, with in-depth descriptions for the nervous component of some groups or of particular organs while scant data is available for

Temporal and Spatial Distribution Patterns of Echinoderm Larvae in La Parguera, Puerto Rico

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2010
This study describes temporal and spatial abundance patterns of echinoderm larvae in La Parguera, Puerto Rico. For the temporal study, larvae were sampled by a series of monthly tows taken with a 64μm mesh net between the new and full moon from April ...

Long‐term recovery and food web response of benthic macrofauna following cessation of bottom trawling in a marine protected area

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice
The understanding of the depletion of species and communities and recovery following the reduction of pressures is fundamental in conservation biology. The impact of bottom trawl fisheries on benthic communities has been well studied, but there are few ...

Recombinant SpTransformer proteins bind to specific sites on sea urchin phagocytes and modulate SpTransformer gene expression and immune responsiveness

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
IntroductionThe California purple sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus, relies exclusively on an innate immune system to survive in its pathogen rich marine environment. Central to this defense is the SpTransformer (SpTrf) gene family that is unique

The Metameric Echinoderm

open access: yesIntegrative Organismal Biology
Synopsis Animal phyla are distinguished by their body plans, the ways in which their bodies are organized. A distinction is made, for example, among phyla with bodies of many segments (metameric; e.g., annelids, arthropods, and chordates), others with completely unsegmented bodies (americ; e.g., flatworms and mollusks), and a few phyla ...

Climate conditions on the South‐Iberian Palaeomargin during the latest Pliensbachian to early Toarcian: A mineralogical and geochemical study from hemipelagic deposits

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The integrated analysis of lithofacies, mineralogy and geochemistry of the hemipelagic marine succession exposed in La Cerradura section (South‐Iberian Palaeomargin) provides new information to characterise the palaeoenvironmental conditions during the latest Pliensbachian to early Toarcian, including the Jenkyns Event.
