Inter-year consistencies and discrepancies on intestinal microbiota for overwintering relict gulls: correlations with food composition and implications for environmental adaptation [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
The gut microbiota of migratory birds is influenced by their food choices, and exploring the potential relationship between diet composition and gut microbiota can help better protect related species. By integrating non-invasive sampling techniques, high-

The ecological role of Pholas dactylus (Mollusca, Bivalvia) empty burrows [PDF]

Scientific Reports
The study of biological rhythms has been widely explored in terrestrial and marine systems. Time-lapse photography can document species behaviour, avoiding observer disturbance, and record abundance and interactions.

Hidden-break diversity in pancrustacean rRNA profiles [PDF]

PeerJ
Background In the 28S rRNA molecule of many invertebrates, a hidden break splits this large subunit into two noncovalently associated fragments (28Sa and 28Sb), masking 28S in electrophoretic profiles and biasing the standard measurements of RNA quality ...

Naupliar and Metanaupliar Development of Thysanoessa raschii (Malacostraca, Euphausiacea) from Godthåbsfjord, Greenland, with a Reinstatement of the Ancestral Status of the Free-Living Nauplius in Malacostracan Evolution. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
The presence of a characteristic crustacean larval type, the nauplius, in many crustacean taxa has often been considered one of the few uniting characters of the Crustacea.

Analyses of the Dmrt family in a decapod crab, Eriocheir sinensis uncover new facets on the evolution of DM domain genes

Frontiers in Physiology, 2023
DM domain genes are a group of transcription factors that are integral to sexual development and its evolution in metazoans. Their functions and regulatory mechanisms are not well understood in Malacostraca (crabs and crayfish) while these sex regulators
