A taxogenomics approach uncovers a new genus in the phylum Placozoa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Abstract The Placozoa [1] is a monotypic phylum of non-bilaterian marine animals. Its only species, Trichoplax adhaerens , was described in 1883 [2], Despite the worldwide distribution of placozoans [3–6], morphological differences are lacking among isolates from different ...

First record of Placozoa from the Gulf of Mexico

open access: yesHidrobiológica, 2017
Placozoa is a phylum with only one species:Trichoplax adhaerens (F. E. Schulze, 1883); recent genetic studies suggest, however,that several haplotypes inhabit tropical and subtropical waters around the world. Placozoans have been found usually close to littoral zones where mangrove forests occur. Goals. To provide the second record of this species from

Social Feeding Behavior of Trichoplax adhaerens

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019
Animals have evolved different foraging strategies in which some animals forage independently and others forage in groups. The evolution of social feeding does not necessarily require cooperation, social feeding can be a beneficial individual-level ...

The Mesenchyme-Like Layer of the Fiber Cells of Trichoplax adhaerens (Placozoa), a Syncytium

open access: yesZeitschrift für Naturforschung C, 1995
Abstract The fiber cells of the middle layer of Trichoplax adhaerens are interconnected by slender extensions. Newly formed connections after mechanical disruption of the tissue studied in ultrathin sections revealed cytoplasmic continuity between the cell bodies, suggesting a syncytial organisation of the fiber cell layer.

Physiology and evolution of voltage-gated calcium channels in early diverging animal phyla: Cnidaria, Placozoa, Porifera and Ctenophora

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2016
Voltage-gated calcium (Cav) channels serve dual roles in the cell, where they can both depolarize the membrane potential for electrical excitability, and activate transient cytoplasmic Ca2+ signals.

Telomeres and telomerase in basal Metazoa

open access: yesInvertebrate Survival Journal, 2017
Telomeres are protein-bound tandemly repeated simple DNA sequences placed at the chromosome ends, their role being essential for maintaining genome integrity.
