Two Routes to Land: Genomic Underpinnings of Parallel Aerial Egg Deposition in Aquatic Old‐World Pila and New‐World Pomacea (Ampullariidae)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Comparative genomics of Gondwana‐diverged Pila and Pomacea reveals parallel evolution of aerial oviposition. Convergent chromosomal rearrangements reshape regulatory landscapes within topologically associating domains. Lineage‐specific gene family expansions and viral‐derived perivitelline proteins (PV1) underpin desiccation resistance.

Baseline studies on meiofauna in the Baltic Sea before bottom-trawl fisheries exclusion II. A comparative study using multi-gene metabarcoding and morphology [PDF]

Metabarcoding and Metagenomics
Understanding how meiofaunal communities respond to spatial protection measures is essential for evaluating the effectiveness of marine conservation strategies, particularly in heavily impacted regions such as the Baltic Sea.

Kuwait's marine biodiversity: Qualitative assessment of indicator habitats and species.

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2020
The tropical waters of the Northern Arabian Gulf have a long history of maritime resource richness. High levels of biodiversity result from the complex matrix of coastal habitats, coral reefs and sea grass beds that characterise the region.

Biodiversity and Marine Annelids:

Biología y Sociedad, 2023
En esta contribución atiendo algunas cuestiones relativas al estudio de la biodiversidad y de los anélidos marinos(principalmente poliquetos) desde una perspectiva de las transiciones históricas y ambientales. Se revisa brevemente el origen del término biodiversidad y su rápido desplazamiento en el discurso político por el de desarrollo sostenible ...

T2T Genome Assembly and Multi‐Omics Data Reveal Terrestrial Adaptation and Mucus Biosynthesis in Tropical Leatherleaf Slug (Laevicaulis alte)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A gap‐free genome assembly and multi‐omics comparison of the terrestrial slug Laevichaulis alte with an aquatic relative reveal that expansion of the VEGF family orchestrates mucus production, lipid metabolism, and immune defense—highlighting key molecular innovations for conquering life on land.

New Perspectives on Marine Biodiversity [PDF]

AMBIO, 2010
Marine and terrestrial ecosystems are so fundamentally different in some aspects that many of the issues concerning biodiversity cannot be interpreted using a single theory of common application to all ecosystems. Their limitation is evident when it comes to highly biodiverse and interconnected marine ecosystems such as coral reefs. Trophic links are a

High Tree Species Diversity Promotes Thermal Enhancement Response of Microbial Carbon Use Efficiency

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Predicting soil carbon dynamics under warming is constrained by limited understanding of microbial thermal adaptation, particularly whether microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) can adapt to warming and how plant diversity modulates this response. Using soils from a natural tree species diversity gradient in a subtropical forest, we combined a
