Identification of LINE retrotransposons and long non-coding RNAs expressed in the octopus brain

BMC Biology, 2022
Background Transposable elements (TEs) widely contribute to the evolution of genomes allowing genomic innovations, generating germinal and somatic heterogeneity, and giving birth to long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs).

Radioisotopes demonstrate the contrasting bioaccumulation capacities of heavy metals in embryonic stages of cephalopod species. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Cephalopods play a key role in many marine trophic food webs and also constitute alternative fishery resources in the context of the ongoing decline in finfish stocks.

De novo transcriptome sequencing of the Octopus vulgaris hemocytes using Illumina RNA-Seq technology: response to the infection by the gastrointestinal parasite Aggregata octopiana.

PLoS ONE, 2014
BackgroundOctopus vulgaris is a highly valuable species of great commercial interest and excellent candidate for aquaculture diversification; however, the octopus' well-being is impaired by pathogens, of which the gastrointestinal coccidian parasite ...

A contribution to the understanding of phylogenetic relationships among species of the genus Octopus (Octopodidae: Cephalopoda)

Scientia Marina, 2012
Many species of the genus Octopus are important resources for fisheries worldwide. Its approximately 200 species show a strong similarity in structural morphology and a wide diversity in skin coloration and patterning, behaviour and life strategies that

Reconstructing discards profiles of unreported catches [PDF]

, 2018
In Portugal it has been estimated that unreported catches represent one third of total catches. Herein, information on landings and total unreported catches (discards) by commercial métier were disaggregated into high taxonomic detail using published ...

In silico Identification and Expression of Protocadherin Gene Family in Octopus vulgaris

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
Connecting millions of neurons to create a functional neural circuit is a daunting challenge. Vertebrates developed a molecular system at the cell membrane to allow neurons to recognize each other by distinguishing self from non-self through homophilic ...

Allopatric speciation within a cryptic species complex of Australasian octopuses. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Despite extensive revisions over recent decades, the taxonomy of benthic octopuses (Family Octopodidae) remains in a considerable flux. Among groups of unresolved status is a species complex of morphologically similar shallow-water octopods from ...
