Influence of Winter Storms on the Sea Urchin Pathogen Assemblages
In recent years, recurrent sea urchin mass mortalities in the Canary Islands have been registered. These mortality-related events have decimated 93% of the eastern Atlantic populations of the barren-forming sea urchin Diadema africanum.

Trophic cascades induced by lobster fishing are not ubiquitous in southern California kelp forests. [PDF]
Fishing can trigger trophic cascades that alter community structure and dynamics and thus modify ecosystem attributes. We combined ecological data of sea urchin and macroalgal abundance with fishery data of spiny lobster (Panulirus interruptus) landings ...

A variant mimicking hyperphosphorylated 4E-BP inhibits protein synthesis in a sea urchin cell-free, cap-dependent translation system. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: 4E-BP is a translational inhibitor that binds to eIF4E to repress cap-dependent translation initiation. This critical protein:protein interaction is regulated by the phosphorylation of 4E-BP.

Marine heat wave and multiple stressors tip bull kelp forest to sea urchin barrens
Extreme climatic events have recently impacted marine ecosystems around the world, including foundation species such as corals and kelps. Here, we describe the rapid climate-driven catastrophic shift in 2014 from a previously robust kelp forest to ...

Gonad quality of sea urchin Tripneustis gratilla with different seaweed diets
Gonad quality of sea urchin Tripneustis gratilla is influenced by consumed seaweed type. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the type of seaweed as potential source of carotenoids and produce a good quality of sea urchin gonad. The study was
