Acaenoplax — polychaete or mollusc? [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2001
Palaeozoic invertebrate fossils may pose severe problems in assigning them to Recent taxa. Sutton et al.1 describe the beautifully preserved and illustrated Silurian fossil Acaenoplax hayae as a “plated aplacophoran” mollusc, interpreting its polychaete-like characters as convergent features.

Temperature-Modulated Expression of Allometric Respiration Strategies Supports a Metabolic Scaling Rule

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2017
A model based on the mass-specific oxygen consumption rate of the tolerant polychaete, Capitella telata, related meaningfully to a novel metabolic scaling rule as applied to the infaunal size spectrum. Depending on temperature, C.

A Polychaete hunchback Ortholog

open access: yesDevelopmental Biology, 2001
We report the first characterization of a segmentation gene homologue in the basal polychaete Capitella capitata using a pan-annelid cross-species antibody to the hunchback-like gene product. In flies, the gap segmentation gene hunchback (hb) encodes a C(2)H(2) zinc-finger transcription factor that plays a pivotal role in patterning the anterior region

Lipid reserves of red mullet (Mullus barbatus) during pre-spawning in the northwestern Mediterranean

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2007
Lipid reserves are a particularly important attribute of fishes because they have a large influence on growth, reproduction and survival. This study analyses the lipid content of red mullet (Mullus barbatus) pre-spawners in three different areas of the ...
