Defensome against toxic diatom aldehydes in the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus. [PDF]
Many diatom species produce polyunsaturated aldehydes, such as decadienal, which compromise embryonic and larval development in benthic organisms. Here newly fertilized Paracentrotus lividus sea urchins were exposed to low concentration of decadienal and

Proteomic dataset of Paracentrotus lividus gonads of different sexes and at different maturation stages [PDF]
We report the proteomic dataset of gonads from wild Paracentrotus lividus related to the research article entitled “Proteomic changes occurring along gonad maturation in the edible sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus” [1].

Presence of a low molecular weight lectin in the coelomic fluid of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus [PDF]
A low molecular weight (MW) lectin (Paracentrotus lividus small lectin, PlSL) has been found in the sea urchin, Paracentrotus lividus. After gel electrophoresis under denaturing conditions, PlSL exhibits a MW of 13 kDa, while its hemagglutinating ...

Role of trophic interactions between fishes, sea urchins and algae in the northwestern Mediterranean rocky infralittoral, The [PDF]
[eng] The discipline of ecology is habitually divided up into a whole range of different specialities, and this thesis forms part of what is commonly known as "community ecology" (Diamond and Case 1986).

The Abundance of the Sea Urchin Paracentrotus lividus on the Coasts of Gökçeada
The demand for the roe of Paracentrotus lividus is increasing despite world-wide fisheries bans and the balance of marine ecosystems is disturbed due to this overexploitation. Although not consumed locally, there has been fishing pressure on this species,

Metabolomics Unravels Grazing Interactions under Nutrient Enrichment from Aquaculture
Our goal was to understand the mechanisms behind the impact of nutrient enrichment at intermediate distances from aquaculture on the interactions of a subtidal macroalgae community with its main grazer, the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus.
