Phylogenomics of unusual histone H2A Variants in Bdelloid rotifers. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2009 Rotifers of Class Bdelloidea are remarkable in having evolved for millions of years, apparently without males and meiosis. In addition, they are unusually resistant to desiccation and ionizing radiation and are able to repair hundreds of radiation ...

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

BioMed Research International, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020 Immature mosquitoes are aquatic, and their distribution, abundance, and individual fitness in a particular breeding habitat are known to be dependent on mainly three factors: biotic factors, abiotic factors, and their interaction between each other and with other associated taxa.

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.

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.

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 6, November–December 2025.Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding of bulk zooplankton from the White and Blue Nile near Khartoum recovered 40 genus/species‐level taxa belonging to Cladocera, Copepoda, and Rotifera, representing 53%–72% of ASVs. Rotifers were the most diverse group, and low Cladocera read counts likely reflect primer mismatch despite similar morphological ...
