Probable Displacement of Riffle-Dwelling Invertebrates by the Introduced Rusty Crayfish, \u3ci\u3eOrconectes Rusticus\u3c/i\u3e (Decapoda: Cambaridae) in a North-Central Wisconsin Stream [PDF]

, 2018
The rapid northward range expansion of the rusty crayfish, Orconectes rusticus, and its negative effects on Wisconsin lakes have been the subjects of intense study throughout the last fifteen years.

Trans-generational Immune Priming in Invertebrates: Current Knowledge and Future Prospects

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Trans-generational immune priming (TGIP) refers to the transfer of the parental immunological experience to its progeny. This may result in offspring protection from repeated encounters with pathogens that persist across generations. Although extensively

The Role of the TLR4-MyD88 Signaling Pathway in the Immune Response of the Selected Scallop Strain “Hongmo No. 1” to Heat Stress

Animals
The innate immunity of marine bivalves is challenged upon exposure to heat stress, especially with increases in the frequency and intensity of heat waves.

Collagen of Extracellular Matrix from Marine Invertebrates and Its Medical Applications

Marine Drugs, 2019
The extraction and purification of collagen are of great interest due to its biological function and medicinal applications. Although marine invertebrates are abundant in the animal kingdom, our knowledge of their extracellular matrix (ECM), which mainly

Vortex arrays and ciliary tangles underlie the feeding-swimming tradeoff in starfish larvae [PDF]

, 2016
Many marine invertebrates have larval stages covered in linear arrays of beating cilia, which propel the animal while simultaneously entraining planktonic prey. These bands are strongly conserved across taxa spanning four major superphyla, and they are responsible for the unusual morphologies of many invertebrate larvae.
