Long-term habituation of the gill-withdrawal reflex in Aplysia requires gene transcription, calcineurin and L-type voltage-gated calcium channels

Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2010
Although habituation is possibly the simplest form of learning, we still do not fully understand the neurobiological basis of habituation in any organism.

Associations between small dams and mollusk assemblages in Alabama streams

, 2011
Small dams are ubiquitous yet poorly understood features in many streams. Dam removal is being used increasingly in stream restoration projects as a means to enhance habitat connectivity and ecosystem function.

Dietary Probiotic Rhodopseudomonas palustris Formulation Improves Growth Performance, Muscle Composition, Digestive Enzyme Activity, Non-Specific Immunity and Disease Resistance of Juvenile Ivory Shell (Babylonia areolata)

Fishes
Rhodopseudomonas palustris (RP) are known anaerobic bacteria with probiotic properties containing several bioactive compounds and enzymes that benefit aquatic animals. However, studies on the use of RP on aquatic animal species are limited.

A shining starlet: Nematostella vectensis as a model for developmental, regenerative, and comparative biology

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.

Latitudinal effect on the structure of snake–prey interaction networks is mediated by snake species richness

Ecography, EarlyView.
Despite the growing number of studies on trophic networks in recent decades, there are still important gaps in our understanding of how these networks are structured across broad environmental gradients. These gaps are even greater in some groups of terrestrial vertebrates, such as snakes, requiring a cohesive synthesis of their broader trophic ...

Estuarine benthic diversity declines with temperature across a tropical–temperate gradient

Ecography, EarlyView.
Estuarine benthic sediments are important habitats that support ecosystem health and productivity, but the drivers of large‐scale patterns in benthic diversity are not well documented. Using 18S amplicon sequencing of 425 sediment DNA samples from estuaries spanning 20° of latitude along Australia's east coast, we assessed tropical–temperate patterns ...
