Characterization of 11 complete mitochondrial genomes in Nudibranchia (Mollusca, Gastropoda) [PDF]

open access: yesZooKeys
Nudibranchs, also known as sea slugs, represent a high species diversity within Heterobranchia (Mollusca, Gastropoda); however, the systematics within this order remain controversial.

The Complete Mitochondrial Genome of the Photosymbiotic Sea Slug Berghia stephanieae (Valdés, 2005) (Gastropoda, Nudibranchia) [PDF]

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA Part B: Resources, 2021
Berghia stephanieae (Nudibranchia, Cladobranchia) is a photosymbiotic sea slug that feeds exclusively on sea anemones from the genus Exaiptasia. It then specifically incorporates dinoflagellates belonging to the Symbiodiniaceae obtained from their prey ...

Narrowly defined taxa on a global scale: The phylogeny and taxonomy of the genera Catriona and Tenellia (Nudibranchia, Trinchesiidae) favours fine‐scale taxonomic differentiation and dissolution of the “lumpers & splitters” dilemma

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2023
By applying morphological and molecular data on two genera of the nudibranch molluscs it is shown that the tension between taxonomic practice and evolutionary processes persists. A review of the related genera Catriona and Tenellia is used to demonstrate

The complete mitochondrial genome of sea slug Phyllidiopsis krempfi Pruvot-Fol, 1957 (Nudibranchia, Phyllidiidae) from Pacific Ocean

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
The mitogenome of Phyllidiopsis krempfi has been determined for the first time. The assembled mitogenome was 14,970 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA, and 2 ribosomal RNA genes.

The Sea Slug Tethys fimbria Linnaeus, 1767 (Nudibranchia: Tethydidae) Expands its Distribution Northwards to the Sea of Marmara

open access: yesAquatic Sciences and Engineering, 2023
This study reports our observation of the large sea slug Tethys fimbria Linnaeus, 1767 in the northern-eastern Sea of Marmara (the Princes’ Islands). We observed T. fimbria on the detrital bottom of the sea at a depth of 35 m in June 2022.

Is a Modified Actin the Key to Toxin Resistance in the Nudibranch Chromodoris? A Biochemical and Molecular Approach

open access: yesDiversity, 2023
Five Chromodoris species from North Sulawesi, Indonesia, were investigated for their sequestration of marine natural products. The cytotoxic 2-thiazolidinone macrolide latrunculin A (LatA) was the major metabolite in all examined Chromodoris species, as ...

The nudibranch Berghia stephanieae (Valdés, 2005) is not able to initiate a functional symbiosome-like environment to maintain Breviolum minutum (J.E.Parkinson & LaJeunesse 2018)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Photosymbiosis is found in different animal lineages and is best understood in cnidarians. A successful initiation and maintenance of the symbiosis between the animal hosts and the photosymbiotic partners is based on a recognition by specific host ...
