Sea cucumber as a therapeutic aquatic resource for human health
Sea cucumbers are worm-like, leathery bodied, benthic, marine organisms with a branched gonad. There are over 900 species, and these organisms are capable of changing their mechanical state, regenerating their small appendages, and digestive tract ...

ParaHox Genes Revisited: From Gut Patterning to Integrated Axial and Neural Organization in Rotifera
In rotifers, ParaHox genes show a dispersed genomic organization, with Xlox absent across gnathiferans. Exclusive neuronal expression of Gsx and Cdx reveals that ancestral ParaHox genes coordinated neural and epithelial development beyond gut patterning, suggesting an integrated role in early bilaterian body plan organization.

ABSTRACT Biofouling on artificial surfaces in aquatic ecosystems leads to significant economic losses. Current antifouling paints, while effective, often harm the aquatic environment. This study explores ecologically safe antifouling alternatives derived from plants, focusing on the aquatic macrophytes Cabomba caroliniana (CC) and Schoenoplectus ...

Isolation and identification of bacterial endosymbionts in the brooding brittle star Amphipholis squamata [PDF]
Symbiotic associations with subcuticular bacteria (SCB) have been identified and studied in numerous echinoderms, including the SCB of the brooding brittle star, Amphipholis squamata.

Latitudinal Gradients of Species Richness in Marine Benthos: Insights From Japan's Tidal Flat Areas
Latitudinal diversity gradients in species richness were observed in the coasts of Japan. Extensive tidal flats and biogeographical connectivity to the Eurasian Continent may cause the unexpected peak in species diversity at the Kyushu region. Mollusca was the dominant taxonomic group, followed by Malacostraca, Annelida, and other benthic groups ...
