Revisiting the silicon isotopic signal of sponge skeletons and its implications
Abstract This study investigates the relationship between the silicon (Si) isotopic composition of sponge skeletal silica (δ30SibSi) and seawater characteristics in sponge habitats, specifically the concentration of dissolved silicic acid and its Si isotopic signature (δ30SidSi).

Dosilia (Porifera, Demospongiae) redefined [PDF]
Dosilia plumosa (Carter, 1849), type species of the genus, and D. brouni (Kirkpatrick, 1906), with distribution respectively in the Oriental and Ethiopic regions, are revised based on a SEM analysis of spicules, gemmules and skeletal structure. The lectotype here designated for D.

Abstract Cyclodepsipeptides (CDPs) represent a huge family of chemically and structurally diverse molecules with a wide ability for molecular interactions. CDPs are cyclic peptide‐related natural products made up of both proteinogenic and nonproteinogenic amino acids linked by amide and ester bonds.

Transposon-derived transcription factors across metazoans
Transposable elements (TE) could serve as sources of new transcription factors (TFs) in plants and some other model species, but such evidence is lacking for most animal lineages. Here, we discovered multiple independent co-options of TEs to generate 788

Understanding how species survive at their poleward limits of distribution is of interest in species conservation, particularly in light of global warming and predictions of shifting distributions of both predators and prey species. How species adapt to high latitudes and to future climate changes will be impacted both by direct interactions with the ...
