Developing a Fecal DNA Method With Blocking Primers to Determine Red Knots' (<i>Calidris canutus</i>) Diets Noninvasively. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe blocking primer suppressed Red Knot DNA while improving detection of other prey taxa. We detected horseshoe crab in the Fall fecal samples, suggesting their use goes beyond the spring migration period of the Red Knots. ABSTRACT Understanding the diets of migratory shorebirds such as the Red Knot (Calidris canutus) is essential for evaluating ...

Lethaia, EarlyView., 2021 Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

Functional Anatomy of the Pharynx of Glycera tridactyla Schmarda, 1861 (Annelida: Glyceriformia: Glyceridae). [PDF]
J MorpholMicro‐CT technology was used to investigate the functional anatomy of the pharynx in the polychaete Glycera tridactyla. The study revealed a complex system of pharyngeal muscles, including ring muscles, retensor muscles, intestinal retractor muscles, and longitudinal muscles of the buccal tube and oesophagus.

A new method to determine the reproductive condition in female tubeworms tested in Seepiophila jonesi (Polychaeta: Siboglinidae: Vestimentifera) [PDF]
, 2008 Vestimentiferan tubeworms are significant members of deep-sea chemosynthetically-driven communities, including hydrothermal vents and cold seeps. The reproductive condition in this taxon is rarely studied because of sampling constraints inherent to these
