The genome of the giant Nomura’s jellyfish sheds light on the early evolution of active predation

BMC Biology, 2019
Background Unique among cnidarians, jellyfish have remarkable morphological and biochemical innovations that allow them to actively hunt in the water column and were some of the first animals to become free-swimming.

Haplotype‐resolved genome and pan‐genome graphs reveal the impacts of structural variation on functional genome and feather colors in chickens

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
This study built a Wenchang chicken haplotype genome and integrated it with 29 others to create a chicken pangenome atlas. Analysis of 354 chickens revealed 185,205 structural variations (SVs), with one‐third derived from homology‐based and transposable elements.

Medusozoan genomes inform the evolution of the jellyfish body plan

Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2019
Cnidarians are astonishingly diverse in body form and lifestyle, including the presence of a jellyfish stage in medusozoans and its absence in anthozoans.

De Novo Whole Genome Assemblies of Unusual Case‐Making Caddisflies (Trichoptera) Highlight Genomic Convergence in the Composition of the Major Silk Gene (h‐fibroin)

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, EarlyView.
The major silk gene, h‐fibroin, was annotated in high‐quality genomes of two unusual case‐making Trichoptera. H‐Fibroin of Limnocentropus insolitus shows a similar amino acid composition to other case‐making species, while the amino acid composition of h‐fibroin of Phryganopsyche brunnea resembles that of retreat‐making species.

Is global ocean sprawl a cause of jellyfish blooms? [PDF]

, 2013
Jellyfish (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa) blooms appear to be increasing in both intensity and frequency in many coastal areas worldwide, due to multiple hypothesized anthropogenic stressors.

Star formation in the massive cluster merger Abell 2744

, 2014
We present a comprehensive study of star-forming (SF) galaxies in the HST Frontier Field recent cluster merger A2744 (z=0.308). Wide-field, ultraviolet-infrared (UV-IR) imaging enables a direct constraint of the total star formation rate (SFR) for 53 ...

A Novel Fractional‐Order Predictive PI Controller Approach for the Systems With Noninteger Order Delay

Optimal Control Applications and Methods, EarlyView.
Hybrid Algorithm‐Based Optimal FOPI Controller in Three‐phase UPQC system ABSTRACT Time delay (TD) is a common phenomenon in practical systems. Most studies have focused on the classical notion of integer‐order TD. However, it should not be neglected that the delay can also be noninteger.
