Transplants in annelids, nemerteans and planarians: a tool for embryology, immunology, endocrinology and regeneration research [PDF]
Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2015 While transplantation procedures are often associated with biomedical applications, they are also an invaluable tool for basic research. This review focuses on how transplantation techniques have been used to understand the biology of three large ...

Evidence for adaptive explanations of semelparity in animals
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Semelparity, the reproductive strategy of reproducing once, is widespread but uncommon in animals. Classes of models to explain the evolution of semelparity are based either on age structure and mortality schedules – demographic models in which high post‐reproductive mortality risk favours high reproductive effort and semelparity results from ...

An Overview of Hox Genes in Lophotrochozoa: Evolution and Functionality
Journal of Developmental Biology, 2016 Hox genes are regulators of animal embryonic development. Changes in the number and sequence of Hox genes as well as in their expression patterns have been related to the evolution of the body plan.

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 ...
