Water Interaction Type Affects Environmental DNA Shedding Rates of Terrestrial Mammal eDNA Into Surface Water Bodies

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 3, May–June 2025.
Although shedding rates for aquatic species are well studied, little is known about terrestrial mammal shedding rates in water. In this study, we quantify eDNA shedding rates from domestic dogs during various interactions with water bodies and find that defecation and crossing through water produce the highest shedding rates, highlighting direct water ...

Understanding Dynamic Molecular Responses Is Key to Designing Environmental Stress Experiments: A Review of Gene and Protein Expression in Cnidaria Under Stress

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 9, May 2025.
ABSTRACT Gene and protein expression analyses are powerful tools to investigate the responses of cnidarians to stress, providing information on both genetic and functional variation and capturing dynamic shifts in organismal physiology. As the use of high throughput sequencing to understand responses of cnidarians to stressors is still relatively new ...

Multigene phylogeny of the scyphozoan jellyfish family Pelagiidae reveals that the common U.S. Atlantic sea nettle comprises two distinct species (Chrysaora quinquecirrha and C. chesapeakei) [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
Background Species of the scyphozoan family Pelagiidae (e.g., Pelagia noctiluca, Chrysaora quinquecirrha) are well-known for impacting fisheries, aquaculture, and tourism, especially for the painful sting they can inflict on swimmers. However, historical

A Network Approach to White Band Disease Challenged Staghorn Coral Acropora cervicornis microRNAs and Their Targets

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
Our study looks at the association between microRNA expression and disease resistance in Caribbean staghorn corals infected with White Band Disease. We find three microRNAs differentially expressed due to disease resistance with putative targets involved in innate immunity.

Las medusas Scyphozoa de la Bahía Blanca, Argentina

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Oceanography, 1989
Juvenils and adults of Chrysaora láctea, Aurelia aurita and Drymonema gorgo were found in Blanca Bay during summer and efirae of the two first occurred from October to January. These species are commonly found in Brazilian waters.

A Morphospace Exploration Using a General Model of Development Reveals a Basic Set of Morphologies for Early Animal Development and Evolution

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 344, Issue 2, Page 45-58, March 2025.
This work used the model EmbryoMaker to explore the most basic set of morphologies that can be produced from spherical initial conditions by activating cell properties and behaviors in simple genetic territories. We found five possible morphogenetic transformations: invagination, evagination, elongation, condensation and anisotropic growth.

Comparative Aspects of Structure and Function of Cnidarian Neuropeptides

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
Cnidarians are early-branching animals in the eukaryotic tree of life. The phylum Cnidaria are divided into five classes: Scyphozoa (true jellyfish), Cubozoa (box jellyfish), Hydrozoa (species, Hydra and Hydractinia), Anthozoa (sea anemone, corals, and ...

Global Variation in Zooplankton Niche Divergence Across Ocean Basins

open access: yesEcology Letters, Volume 28, Issue 2, February 2025.
We explored the evidence of niche divergence between population for marine zooplankton globally. We found 44% of all population comparisons show niche divergence. Niche divergence varied across temperature and bathymetry gradients for copepods. ABSTRACT Modelling responses to climate change assumes zooplankton populations remain similar over time with ...

Catostylus tagi: partial rDNA sequencing and characterisation of nematocyte structures using two improvements in jellyfish sample preparation

open access: yesJournal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases, 2015
Background More than 200 Scyphozoa species have been described, but few have been properly studied regarding their chemical and genetic characteristics.Catostylus tagi, an edible Scyphozoa and the sole European Catostylidae, occurs in summer at Tagus and
