Exploring the composition, variation and interactions of unicellular organisms in the marine benthic community with DNA metabarcoding [PDF]
The marine benthic ecosystem, encompassing the sea floor and the sedimentary habitats within, plays a crucial role in major biogeochemical cycles and the functioning of the marine ecosystem.

First Phylogenomic Reconstruction of the Nudibranch Suborder Doridina (Gastropoda, Heterobranchia), Using RNA-SEQ Data [PDF]
Doridina is a diverse group of sea slugs composed of over 2000 species and 16 families. This diversity can be hypothesized as a result of the evolution of unique defensive and feeding strategies in this group.

Critical thermal maxima and oxygen uptake in Elysia viridis (Montagu, 1804), a sea slug that steals chloroplasts to photosynthesize [PDF]
Photosynthetic animals produce oxygen, providing an ideal lens for studying how oxygen dynamics influence thermal sensitivity. The algivorous sea slug, Elysia viridis, can steal and retain chloroplasts from Bryopsis sp.

Planktonic mixotrophs, including ciliates, are abundant, yet understudied, mediators of primary and secondary production in aquatic food webs. Here, we report high-resolution in situ observations of a thin layer—a vertically limited patch of high ...

Kleptochemie und Kleptoplastie in Opisthobranchia (Mollusca Gastropoda)
Zwei mögliche Schlüsselmerkmale (Kleptoplastie und Kleptochemie) der Opisthobranchia werden untersucht. Im Fokus steht dabei die Nutzung von Naturprodukten als chemische Verteidigungsstrategie. Einige dieser Stoffe stammen aus der Nahrung, andere werden von Opisthobranchiern \(\textit {de novo}\) synthetisiert.
