FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 17, Page 2579-2614, September 2026.Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.Bulk‐ and eDNA‐metabarcoding were compared across 50 groundwater sites (monitoring wells, springs, hydrants) to assess invertebrate communities. Both recovered different community structures with limited overlap (13.8% OTUs); eDNA was dominated by non‐stygobionts, and bulk samples by stygobionts.

Highly Expressed Genes in Marine Sponge Suberites domuncula Prefer C- and G-Ending Codons
Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2009 Sponges are the simplest extant phylum of Metazoa; they are closest to the common ancestor of all multicellular animals. A total of 223 coding sequences from Suberites domuncula (Demospongiae) represent the dataset for the codon usage analysis.

Biology, 2023 As a result of climate change, the Mediterranean Sea has been exposed to an increase in the frequency and intensity of marine heat waves in the last decades, some of which caused mass mortality events of benthic invertebrates, including sponges.

Rethinking Plasticity in Sponges
Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 346, Issue 6, Page 431-446, September 2026.This systematic review critiques the conceptual confusion caused by the indiscriminate use of “plasticity” in Porifera literature, revealing that researchers often overlook genetic variability and fail to distinguish between real‐time environmental responses and natural selection.

Cell cycle analysis of primary sponge cell cultures [PDF]
, 2011 Proliferation of sponge cells is generally measured via cell counts or viability assays. However, more insight into the proliferative state of a sponge cell population can be obtained from the distribution of the cells over the different phases of the ...

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.The family Clionaidae d’Orbigny, 1851, includes excavating sponges characterized by tylostyles and a diverse range of microscleres, including spirasters, amphiasters, microxeas, spiral microstrongyles, and derivatives lacking altogether. Despite recent taxonomic advances, generic boundaries within the family remain problematic due to overlapping ...

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.Rhodolith beds are structurally complex biogenic habitats recognized as important reservoirs of marine biodiversity, yet their associated sponge fauna remains poorly documented in the Southwestern Atlantic. Here, two new species of the genus Clathria Schmidt, 1862 (Microcionidae) are described from mesophotic rhodolith beds off the coast of Pernambuco,
