Comparison of sister species identifies factors underpinning plastid compatibility in green sea slugs

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Biological Sciences, 2015
The only animal cells known that can maintain functional plastids (kleptoplasts) in their cytosol occur in the digestive gland epithelia of sacoglossan slugs.

Photoprotection in sequestered plastids of sea slugs and respective algal sources

Scientific Reports, 2015
Some sea slugs are capable of retaining functional sequestered chloroplasts (kleptoplasts) for variable periods of time. The mechanisms supporting the maintenance of these organelles in animal hosts are still largely unknown. Non-photochemical quenching (

Why It Is Time to Look Beyond Algal Genes in Photosynthetic Slugs

Genome Biology and Evolution, 2015
Eukaryotic organelles depend on nuclear genes to perpetuate their biochemical integrity. This is true for mitochondria in all eukaryotes and plastids in plants and algae.

The Effect of Grazing by the Slug Arion Vulgaris, Arion Rufus and Deroceras Reticulatum (Gastropoda: Pulmonata: Stylommatophora) on Leguminous Plants and other Small-Area Crops

Journal of Plant Protection Research, 2014
Herbivorous slugs do significant damage to many species of crop plants. A laboratory study was conducted to determine the rate and extent of damage caused to 16 plant species by Arion vulgaris, Arion rufus, and Deroceras reticulatum.

Slugs (Gastropoda: Pulmonata: Milacidae, Limacidae, Boettgerillidae, Agriolimacidae, Arionidae) of Slovenia

Acta Biologica Slovenica, 2002
Slugs are among the less investigated gastropods in Slovenia. The study of approximatelly 600 samples of slugs (Milacidae, Limacidae, Boettgerillidae, Agriolimacidae and Arionidae) from three collections and the analysis of data from the literature gave ...
