Deep genetic divergences among Indo-Pacific populations of the coral reef sponge Leucetta chagosensis (Leucettidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background: An increasing number of studies demonstrate that genetic differentiation and speciation in the sea occur over much smaller spatial scales than previously appreciated given the wide distribution range of many morphologically defined coral reef

Wound healing in Caribbean sponges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
On Caribbean coral reefs, many sponges produce chemical defenses that deter fish predation. Sponge species that constitute most of the diet of sponge-eating fishes lack chemical defenses and live exposed on the reef.

The Microbiome and Occurrence of Methanotrophy in Carnivorous Sponges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
As shown by recent studies, filter-feeding sponges are known to host a wide variety of microorganisms. However, the microbial community of the non-filtering carnivorous sponges (Porifera, Cladorhizidae) has been the subject of less scrutiny.

Soft sponges with tricky tree: on the phylogeny of dictyoceratid sponges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Keratose (horny) sponges constitute a very difficult group of Porifera in terms of taxonomy due to their paucity of diagnostic morphological features. (Most) keratose sponges possess no mineral skeletal elements, but an arrangement of organic (spongin ...

Bioinspired Adaptive Surfaces for Intelligent Liquid Manipulation: Progressing From Passive and Active to Hybrid Strategies

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines passive, active, and hybrid liquid manipulation strategies, highlighting hybrid approaches as an emerging route to reconcile energy efficiency with adaptive control. By actively reconstructing passive surfaces to store programmable interfacial energy, hybrid systems enable flexible yet low‐power liquid transport, with perspectives ...
