From Permits to Samples: Addressing Key Challenges for High‐Quality Reference Genome Generation in Europe [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT High‐quality reference genome assemblies have become essential for deepening our understanding of biodiversity, yet obtaining them for many species remains surprisingly challenging. Drawing on experiences from the European Reference Genome Atlas (ERGA) community, we focus on permit and sample‐handling procedures leading up to nucleic acid ...

Photoprotective Non-photochemical Quenching Does Not Prevent Kleptoplasts From Net Photoinactivation

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2018
The enigmatic association of photosynthetically active chloroplasts from algae and some sacoglossan sea slugs, called functional kleptoplasty, is a functional unique system of photosymbioses observed in metazoans.

Chemical defenses in Sacoglossan Opisthobranchs: Taxonomic trends and evolutionary implications

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2004
Sacoglossan sea slugs (Mollusca: Opisthobranchia) are one of the few groups of specialist herbivores in the marine environment. Sacoglossans feed suctorially on the cell sap of macroalgae, from which they "steal" chloroplasts (kleptoplasty) and deterrent

Elysia timida (Risso, 1818) tres décadas de investigación [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
During the last 30 years, studies on Elysia timida (Risso, 1818) have addressed various aspects related to food sources, photosynthetic efficiency of kleptoplasts, population genetics, chemical ecology and reproductive biology, both in the Mediterranean ...

Preservation and remodelling of chloroplast lipids in photosynthetic sea slug host cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
The capacity to retain long-term functional algal chloroplasts within animal cells is a singular trait of certain Sacoglossa sea slugs. The sequestered chloroplasts (kleptoplasts) confer photosynthetic capacity to the host.

Aposymbiotic Specimen of the Photosynthetic Sea Slug Elysia crispata [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Elysia crispata is a sacoglossan sea slug that retains intracellular, functional chloroplasts stolen from their macroalgal food sources. Elysia crispata juveniles start feeding on the algae following metamorphosis, engulfing chloroplasts and turning ...
