Predator-prey dynamics can affect assemblage structure and ecosystem processes representing a central theory in ecology. In coral reef ecosystems, recent evidences have suggested that sponge assemblages in regions with high diversity, like the Caribbean,

Phascolosoma esculenta is an invertebrate living in the ocean's intertidal zone, belonging to the phylum Sipuncula, and is often cooked as a delicious snack in China's coastal areas. It is often referred to as the “sea ginseng” because of its high nutritional value and the efficacy of enhancing endurance.

Regeneration in White Sea sponge Leucosolenia complicata (Porifera, Calcarea).
Sponges (phylum Porifera) possess the remarkable regenerative abilities and great diversity of the regeneration mechanisms. The current study dealt with the regener-ation of calcareous sponge Leucosolenia complicata.

We report the first mitochondrial genome of a Verongid sponge, Aplysina gerardogreeni from the Pacific Ocean. This has 19,620 bp and includes 14 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs genes, and 25 tRNAs genes. The gene arrangement was similar to the one found in

The ability to regenerate is widespread in the animal kingdom, but the regenerative capacities and mechanisms vary widely. To understand the evolutionary history of the diverse regeneration mechanisms, the regeneration processes must be studied in early ...
