Fhod3 in zebrafish supports myofibril stability during growth of embryonic skeletal muscle
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Actin filament organization in cardiomyocytes critically depends on the formin Fhod3, but a role for Fhod3 in skeletal muscle development has not yet been described. Results We demonstrate here that in zebrafish mutated for one of two fhod3 paralog genes, fhod3a, skeletal muscle of the trunk appears normal through 2 days post ...

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background The promoters and enhancers of heat shock genes, such as the 1.5‐kb promoter of the zebrafish hsp70l gene, are valuable tools for temporal activation of transgenes. It has been widely purported that heat shock treatments result in ubiquitous expression of hsp70l‐driven transgenes.

Embryonic development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Starfish play essential ecological roles as predators and ecosystem regulators; however, detailed developmental descriptions exist for only a handful of species, none of which are from the Mediterranean Sea. Results In this study, we provide the first full account of the development of the Mediterranean starfish Hacelia attenuata ...

Zebrafish inversin mutants develop scoliosis in the absence of laterality defects
Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Human mutations in INVERSIN are associated with nephronophthisis, variable penetrance of situs inversus and congenital heart disease. Inversin has been shown to localize to cilia and many of the patient phenotypes are attributed to disrupted cilia function.

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract The sea anemone, Nematostella vectensis, has been used as a model organism in developmental biology studies for many years. This estuarine species has the notable capacity to regenerate its full body plan from small pieces throughout life. Nematostella have been described as having a great degree of cellular plasticity.

Parasitoid insects unveil complex patterns of functional change across elevational bands
Ecography, EarlyView.Climate change is rapidly reshaping how insects interact with their environment, potentially disrupting ecosystem complexity and essential functioning. While functional homogenisation has been extensively investigated for charismatic insect taxa, particularly pollinators, the response of parasitoids remains largely overlooked.

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.Abstract There is increasing concern regarding pollutants disrupting the vertebrate thyroid hormone (TH) system, which is crucial for development. Thus, identification of TH system–disrupting chemicals (THSDCs) is an important requirement in the Organisation for Economic Co‐operation and Development (OECD) testing framework.
