Vascular plant diversity in Swedish road verges of high conservation value is threatened by the invasive alien herb Lupinus polyphyllus Lindley

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Road verges can be important habitats for vascular plant communities and the organisms that, in turn, depend on them. However, the plant diversity in Swedish road verges is threatened by the invasive perennial plant Lupinus polyphyllus Lindl. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of L.

Transcription factor NF-κB is modulated by symbiotic status in a sea anemone model of cnidarian bleaching

Scientific Reports, 2017
Transcription factor NF-κB plays a central role in immunity from fruit flies to humans, and NF-κB activity is altered in many human diseases. To investigate a role for NF-κB in immunity and disease on a broader evolutionary scale we have characterized NF-

Bees, flowers and UV

Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Human‐invisible but bee‐visible UV patterns in flowers aid pollination by signalling to pollinators and protecting vulnerable DNA in pollen. ABSTRACT Ultraviolet light shining on flowers has various effects. In this review we assess functions of UV pigments and UV reflection patterns in flowers, including visual signalling by reflectance, fluorescence,

N-acetylated sugars in clownfish and damselfish skin mucus as messengers involved in chemical recognition by anemone host

Scientific Reports
The clownfish - sea anemone system is a great example of symbiotic mutualism where host «toxicity» does not impact its symbiont partner, although the underlying protection mechanism remains unclear.

Chromospheric Anemone Jets as Evidence of Ubiquitous Reconnection

, 2008
The heating of the solar chromosphere and corona is a long-standing puzzle in solar physics. Hinode observations show the ubiquitous presence of chromospheric anemone jets outside sunspots in active regions.

Partial quantification of pigments extracted from the zooxanthellate octocoral Sinularia flexibilis at varying irradiances [PDF]

, 2010
Chlorophyll-a (chl-a) and carotenoid pigments of the zooxanthellate octocoral Sinularia flexibilis were analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography following exposure to three light intensities for over 30 days. From the coral fragments located

Physiology and metabolism of eukaryotic microalgae involved in aquatic photosymbioses

New Phytologist, Volume 247, Issue 1, Page 71-89, July 2025.
Summary Symbiosis between eukaryotic microalgae and heterotrophic hosts is a widespread, phylogenetically convergent, and ecologically important phenomenon in aquatic ecosystems. Partners include taxonomically diverse microalgae interacting with multicellular or unicellular hosts in marine or freshwater environments.

The mitochondrial genome of a sea anemone Bolocera sp. exhibits novel genetic structures potentially involved in adaptation to the deep‐sea environment

Ecology and Evolution, 2017
The deep sea is one of the most extensive ecosystems on earth. Organisms living there survive in an extremely harsh environment, and their mitochondrial energy metabolism might be a result of evolution.
