Inside or Outside the Pits : Variable Mobility in Conspecific Sea Urchin, Anthocidaris crassispina (A. Agassiz) [PDF]
, 1994 The sea urchin Anthocidaris crassispina (A. Agassiz) lives either in small pits or outside the pits on rock surfaces. Difference in movement between individuals living inside and outside the pits was investigated. Sea urchins living inside the pits never

Aquaculture Reports, 2021 Development of sustainable aquaculture practices is a suitable solution to reduce the pressure on overexploited stocks of the Mediterranean sea urchin, Paracentrotus lividus, and to respond to the increasing market demand. To move forward the Blue Growth

The behavior of sympatric sea urchin species across an ecosystem state gradient [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Background In temperate macroalgal forests, sea urchins are considered as a keystone species due to their grazing ability. Given their potential to shape benthic communities, we monitored the habitat use by three sympatric sea urchin species and compared

Sea Urchin Recruitment: Effect of Substrate Selection on Juvenile Distribution [PDF]
, 1980 Intertidal field observations have shown that juvenile purple sea urchins Strongylocentwtus purpuratus are found in higher densities near adults . The same is true for subtidal populations of juvenile red sea urchins 5. franciscanus.

Species and Abundance of Sea Urchins (Diadematidae) on Different Environmental Pressure Conditions
Journal of Tropical Life Science, 2017 Genetic diversity of sea urchin are very high; there are no two organisms of the same species that are exactly alike. Dense aggregation of sea urchin is responsible for the destruction of marine algae communities on coral reef ecosystem.

Biotropika: Journal of Tropical Biology, 2023 Marine plastic debris will move with the flow of water and float and then be fragmented into smaller particles, namely microplastics, sink, and settle on the substrate. Sea urchins, as deposit feeders, can potentially ingest microplastic particles, which

Sequencing and analysis of the gastrula transcriptome of the brittle star Ophiocoma wendtii [PDF]
, 2012 Background The gastrula stage represents the point in development at which the three primary germ layers diverge. At this point the gene regulatory networks that specify the germ layers are established and the genes that define the differentiated states ...

Gastrulation in the sea urchin
, 2020 Gastrulation is arguably the most important evolutionary innovation in the animal kingdom. This process provides the basic embryonic architecture, an inner layer separated from an outer layer, from which all animal forms arise. An extraordinarily simple and elegant process of gastrulation is observed in the sea urchin embryo. The cells participating in
