A Phylogenetic Analysis of Leptogorgia virgulata and Leptogorgia hebes in the Northwestern Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
The use of genetics in recent years has brought to light the need to reevaluate the classification of many gorgonian octocorals. In 2017, Poliseno et al.

Novel diversity in mitochondrial genomes of deep-sea Pennatulacea (Cnidaria: Anthozoa: Octocorallia) [PDF]
We present the first documented complete mitogenomes of deep-sea Pennatulacea, representing nine genera and eight families. These include one species each of the deep-sea genera Funiculina, Halipteris, Protoptilum and Distichoptilum, four species each of

Molecular biology of octocoral mitochondria [PDF]
The mitochondria of non-bilaterian metazoans display a staggering diversity of genome organizations and also a slow rate of mtDNA evolution, unlike bilaterians, which may hold a key to understand the early evolution of the animal mitochondrion ...

Matreex: Compact and Interactive Visualization for Scalable Studies of Large Gene Families. [PDF]
Studying gene family evolution strongly benefits from insightful visualizations. However, the ever-growing number of sequenced genomes is leading to increasingly larger gene families, which challenges existing gene tree visualizations.
