Cromosomi ed Evoluzione Nella Famiglia Styelidae (Ascidiacea)

Caryologia, 1978
RIASSUNTOEsaminando i cromosomi di dieci specie appartenenti alla famiglia Styelidae, sono stati raccolti alcuni indizi che indicano come primitivo il carattere « precoce attivita centromerica ». Smettendo alcuni dati precedenti e stata provata l'alta uniformita cariologica del genere Slyela.Considerando il numero aploide 16 come primitivo, segue che ...

Phylogeny of the families Pyuridae and Styelidae (Stolidobranchiata, Ascidiacea) inferred from mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences [PDF]

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2009
The Order Stolidobranchiata comprises the families Pyuridae, Styelidae and Molgulidae. Early molecular data was consistent with monophyly of the Stolidobranchiata and also the Molgulidae. Internal phylogeny and relationships between Styelidae and Pyuridae were inconclusive however.

An updated 18S rRNA phylogeny of tunicates based on mixture and secondary structure models

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2009
Background Tunicates have been recently revealed to be the closest living relatives of vertebrates. Yet, with more than 2500 described species, details of their evolutionary history are still obscure. From a molecular point of view, tunicate phylogenetic

Botryllus (Ascidiacea, Styelidae) on the Argentine coast

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research
Two species belonging to the genus Botryllus from three localities (five sampling sites) on the Argentine coast (southwestern Atlantic) were identified, based on morphological analyses. Besides, genetic analyses (COI partial sequences) revealed the presence of clade A of the Botryllus schlosseri species complex, which is widely distributed and ...
