Sea Slug Mucus Production Is Supported by Photosynthesis of Stolen Chloroplasts
Biology, 2022 A handful of sea slugs of the order Sacoglossa are able to steal chloroplasts—kleptoplasts—from their algal food sources and maintain them functionally for periods ranging from several weeks to a few months.

Mitochondrial Genome Assemblies of Elysia timida and Elysia cornigera and the Response of Mitochondrion-Associated Metabolism during Starvation [PDF]
Genome Biology and Evolution, 2017 Some sacoglossan sea slugs sequester functional plastids (kleptoplasts) from their food, which continue to fix CO2 in a light dependent manner inside the animals. In plants and algae, plastid and mitochondrial metabolism are linked in ways that reach beyond the provision of energy-rich carbon compounds through photosynthesis, but how slug mitochondria ...

Description of a new pseudocryptic species of Elysia Risso, 1818 (Heterobranchia, Sacoglossa) in the Mediterranean Sea [PDF]
, 2020 A new sacoglossan species of the genus Elysia Risso, 1818 from southern Italy is described based on its external morphology, color pattern, radular teeth, and reproductive system.

Kleptoplast photosynthesis is nutritionally relevant in the sea slug Elysia viridis
Scientific Reports, 2017 Several sacoglossan sea slug species feed on macroalgae and incorporate chloroplasts into tubular cells of their digestive diverticula. We investigated the role of the “stolen” chloroplasts (kleptoplasts) in the nutrition of the sea slug Elysia viridis ...

Planting Southern Pines in Florida
EDIS, 2022 Florida landowners have contributed vastly to the Southeast’s planting of pines over many decades; recent incentive programs across the state have encouraged further interest. Understanding the factors that affect seedling quality and survival of native

, 2010 Elysia Risso, 1818 Type species: Notarchus timidus Risso, 1818, by monotypy. Comments and diagnosis. In spite of several older diagnoses of the genus, Jensen (1996) could not identify any apomorphic characters which are shared by all species referred to the genus Elysia, and this is still valid.

eLife, 2021 Some sea slugs sequester chloroplasts from algal food in their intestinal cells and photosynthesize for months. This phenomenon, kleptoplasty, poses a question of how the chloroplast retains its activity without the algal nucleus. There have been debates

Frontiers in Zoology, 2018 Background Despite widespread interest in solar-powered sea slugs (Sacoglossa: Gastropoda), relatively little is know about how they actually perform functional kleptoplasty. Sister-taxa Elysia timida and E.
