Genomic Divergence of Sympatric Lineages Within Stichopus cf. horrens (Echinodermata: Stichopodidae): Insights on Reproductive Isolation Inferred From SNP Markers [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionHow reproductive barriers arise in early stages of divergence among broadcast spawning organisms that exist in sympatry remains poorly understood. Reproductively isolated lineages (Clade A and B) of Stichopus cf.

Abstract Echinodermata is a bilaterian phylum with a body plan that has diverged significantly from the common bilaterian plan. Echinoderms are pentaradially symmetrical and have a unique type of mesodermal skeleton that lies just under the integument.

Echinoderm Lagerstätten from high-latitude Gondwana – filling the gap in the Ordovician diversification of the phylum [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023 The phylum Echinodermata is a major component of marine ecosystems since the first appearance of echinoderms in the Cambrian. Like other metazoan phyla, echinoderms underwent two major evolutionary pulses in early Palaeozoic times: the Cambrian Explosion

Phylotranscriptomic analysis uncovers a wealth of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases variants in echinoderms [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2015 Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) help regulate the extracellular matrix (ECM) in animals, mostly by inhibiting matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). They are important activators of mutable collagenous tissue (MCT), which have been extensively
