How does the "ancient" asexual Philodina roseola (Rotifera: Bdelloidea) handle potential UVB-induced mutations? [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2013 Summary Like other obligate asexuals, bdelloid rotifers are expected to suffer from degradation of their genomes through processes including the accumulation of deleterious mutations. However, sequence-based analyses in this regard remain inconclusive.

Cryptic diversification in ancient asexuals: evidence from the bdelloid rotifer Philodina flaviceps [PDF]
Journal of Evolutionary Biology, 2007 AbstractBdelloid rotifers, darwinulid ostracods and some oribatid mites have been called ‘ancient asexuals’ as they speciated and survived over long‐term evolutionary timescale without sexual recombination. Data on their genetic diversification are contrasting: within‐species diversification is present mostly at a continental scale in a parthenogenetic

Life, 2016 Increasing evidence suggests that bdelloid rotifers regularly undergo horizontal gene transfer, apparently as a surrogate mechanism of genetic exchange in the absence of true sexual reproduction, in part because of their ability to withstand desiccation.

The Predator-Prey Encounter Detection (PrED) Model: Detecting Interactions Between Rotifers and Algae Using Computer Vision and Machine Learning. [PDF]
Ecol EvolUsing a simpler predator‐prey pairing of a semi‐sessile rotifer and motile algae, the Predator‐Prey Encounter Detection (PrED) model aims to streamline and semi‐automate video analysis of species interactions using computer‐vision and machine learning techniques. Based on Ultralytics YOLOv5 architecture with an implementation of SORT tracking, the PrED

Local Adaptation? Enhanced Fitness Under Regional UVB Intensities in a Rock Pool Bdelloid Rotifer. [PDF]
Ecol EvolBdelloids from the Chihuahuan Desert appear to have adapted to regional UVB intensities in a localized manner. Bdelloids exposed to winter or summer levels of UVB intensity had a longer lifespan and a higher net reproductive rate. ABSTRACT Exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) can decrease lifespan and reduce fecundity in aquatic invertebrates ...

Contributions of mean temperature and temperature variation to population stability and community diversity. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2022 Climatic changes are predicted to alter mean temperatures and fluctuations in temperature. Here, we show that increased mean temperatures are generally associated with negative impacts on biodiversity. However, these negative impacts can be partially reduced if fluctuations in temperature are maintained. Abstract Future climate changes are predicted to

Discordant spatiotemporal dynamics of functional and phylogenetic diversity of rotiferan communities exposed to aquaculture effluent. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2023 Effluent from aquaculture is an anthropogenic environmental burden, containing organic matter, nutrients and suspended solids that affect water quality in water bodies of high biodiversity and conservation value. Stepping beyond taxon diversity, we used functional and phylogenetic diversities of rotifera to identify factors affecting their community ...
