Marine Biodiversity in Japanese Waters

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
To understand marine biodiversity in Japanese waters, we have compiled information on the marine biota in Japanese waters, including the number of described species (species richness), the history of marine biology research in Japan, the state of knowledge, the number of endemic species, the number of identified but undescribed species, the number of ...

New techniques for old bones: Morphometric and diffeomorphometric analysis of the bony labyrinth of the Reilingen and Ehringsdorf Neandertals

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Neandertals are known to possess very distinctive traits in their bony labyrinth morphology, such as an inferiorly positioned posterior canal and a very low number of turns in the cochlea. Hence, the inner ear has been often used to assess the Neandertal status of fragmentary fossils.

The complete mitochondrial genome of a marine gastropod: Umbonium thomasi (Trochida, Trochidae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
The mitogenome sequence of a marine gastropod, Umbonium thomasi (Crosse, 1863) (Trochida, Trochidae), was determined first in the genus Umbonium. The assembled mitogenome, consisting of 15,998 bp in length, has 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA ...

Indonesian inquiry: A narrative of biocultural teaching on Sulawesi Utara

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Using phenomenology, narrative inquiry and autoethnographic approaches, this study analyses a program of faculty development conducted alongside the delivery of an international field school. Through this study, we explore the value and benefits of inter‐cultural field programming and how these might serve to complement or to redress ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of sponge Pseudosuberites sp. (Demospongiae, Suberitida, Suberitidae) from Dokdo, Republic of Korea (East Sea)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
The mitogenome of Pseudosuberites sp. (Suberitida, Suberitidae) has been determined first in the genus Pseudosuberites. Assembled mitogenome was 23,502 bp in length, including 14 protein-coding genes, 25 transfer RNA, and 2 ribosomal RNA genes. The order

ELAVL1a is an immunocompetent protein that protects zebrafish embryos from bacterial infection

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Ni et al. show that RNA-binding protein ELAVL1a is abundantly stored in the eggs and embryos of zebrafish, serving as a first-line innate immune player. They find that ELAVL1a recognizes molecular patterns of bacteria to inhibit bacterial growth.

Integrated assessment of marine biodiversity status using a prototype indicator-based assessment tool

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2014
Integrated assessment of the status of marine biodiversity is and has been problematic compared to, for example, assessments of eutrophication and contamination status, mostly as a consequence of the fact that monitoring of marine habitats, communities ...
