Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 342, Issue 8, Page 503-528, December 2024.We describe a technique for triggering asexual reproduction by budding in vitro and have monitored bud development. The natural properties of Oscarella lobularis buds and the technical tools we developed make them a new biological system for getting insights into sponge molecular and cellular processes.

Evo-devo of non-bilaterian animals
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2015 The non-bilaterian animals comprise organisms in the phyla Porifera, Cnidaria, Ctenophora and Placozoa. These early-diverging phyla are pivotal to understanding the evolution of bilaterian animals.

Origin and evolution of microvilli
Biology of the Cell, Volume 116, Issue 11, November 2024.Microvilli are widespread organelles of animal cells that frequently play a role in sensation and feeding. Ansel et al. reconstitute their origin and evolution by performing a broad morphological survey of microvilli in animals and their unicellular relatives, coupled with a bioinformatic study of the phylogenetic distribution of the main microvillar ...

Evolution of the Cdk4/6–Cdkn2 system in invertebrates
Genes to Cells, Volume 29, Issue 11, Page 1037-1051, November 2024.Hypothesis on the evolution of the Cdkn2 locus. (a) Loss of Cdkn2 occurred multiple times. (b) Evolution of microsynteny at the Cdkn2 locus. Cdkn2e is a hypothetical transient gene. Abstract The cell cycle is driven by cyclin‐dependent kinases (Cdks). The decision whether the cell cycle proceeds is made during G1 phase, when Cdk4/6 functions.

iMetaOmics, Volume 1, Issue 1, September 2024.The colon contents of the Jiaxing Black (JXB) and the Duroc × Landrace × Yorkshire (DLY) pigs were collected for transcriptomic and metagenomic analyses. By using Weighted Gene Co‐expression Network Analysis and sparse Canonical correlation analysis, we identified the potential interactions between host genes and gut microbes, indicating that host ...

Evolutionary origin of the nervous system from Ctenophora prospective
Evolution &Development, Volume 26, Issue 4, July 2024.This review discusses the evolutionary origin of the nervous system in light of the latest findings in the neuroscience of Ctenophora, one of the most enigmatic and earliest diverging animal lineages. Abstract Nervous system is one of the key adaptations underlying the evolutionary success of the majority of animal groups. Ctenophores (or comb jellies)

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

Social Feeding Behavior of Trichoplax adhaerens
Frontiers 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 ...
