Microbiota regulates life-cycle transition and nematocyte dynamics in jellyfish [PDF]
iScience, 2023 Summary: Jellyfish represent one of the most basal animal groups with complex life cycles. The polyp-to-medusa transition, termed strobilation, is the pivotal process that determines the switch in swimming behavior and jellyfish blooms.

Strobilation in a species of Bougainvillioidea (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa)
Scientia Marina, 2000 In november 1994 several specimens of an unknown hydroid were collected in a tank of the Genoa Aquarium (Italy). The polyps, characterised by filiform tentacles around a proboscis, displayed unusual asexual reproduction, leading to a linear chain of ...

Impact of ocean warming and ocean acidification on asexual reproduction and statolith formation of the symbiotic jellyfish Cotylorhiza tuberculata. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 Ocean acidification and warming are challenging marine organisms and ecosystems around the world. The synergetic effects of these two climate change stressors on jellyfish remain still understudied.

Heat stress disrupts early development and photosymbiosis in Cassiopea jellyfish. [PDF]
PLoS ONEPhotosymbioses between Cnidarians and algae are widespread in marine ecosystems. The jellyfish Cassiopea-Symbiodinium symbiosis serves as a valuable model for studying host-symbiont interactions in photosymbiotic organisms.

Morphological characteristics of ephyrae of Aurelia coerulea derived from planula strobilation [PDF]
Fisheries Science, 2021 Ephyrae are produced through the strobilation of polyps in the general life cycle of Aurelia coerulea. However, it has been reported that planulae can also metamorphose directly into ephyrae, without passing through the polyp stage. There is a mixture of
