Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Marine cone snails produce a diverse array of bioactive peptides, known as conotoxins, in their venom. Given their high target potency and specificity, conotoxins are attractive compounds for the development of precision research tools and pharmacological agents.

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 4, May 2026.ABSTRACT Spiders are renowned for their ecological versatility and silk‐based innovations in materials science, yet marine environments remain virtually uncolonized by this predominantly terrestrial lineage. A striking exception is the obligate intertidal spider genus Desis, whose members have evolved extraordinary physiological and behavioural ...

Visual Cues Can Alter the Behavioural Responses of Dragonfly Larvae to Chemical Alarm Cues
Ethology, Volume 132, Issue 5, Page 349-358, May 2026.Using a controlled experimental approach, we examined how chemical and visual cues influence antipredator behaviour in Aeshna cyanea larvae and tested whether risk‐related information can be socially transmitted among nearby conspecifics. Our results show that dragonfly larvae do not copy the antipredator responses of others, but visual cues alter how ...

Molecular biomarkers and toxic consequences of impact by organic pollution in aquatic organisms [PDF]
, 1994 Organic contaminants are readily bioaccumulated by aquatic organisms. Exposure to and toxic effects of contaminants can be measured in terms of the biochemical responses of the organisms (i.e. molecular biomarkers).
