Rocky intertidal zonation pattern in Antofagasta, chile: invasive species and shellfish gathering.
PLoS ONE, 2014 BackgroundBiological invasions affecting rocky intertidal zonation patterns, yield information on species interactions. In the Bay of Antofagasta, northern Chile, the non-indigenous tunicate Pyura praeputialis, originally from Australia, has invaded (in ...

Oikos, EarlyView.Anthropogenic disturbances are degrading nature at a rate that exceeds its capacity to recover. While considerable research has focused on understanding ecosystem impacts, recovery processes remain comparatively overlooked, particularly in marine ecosystems, where long‐term data on how highly complex systems respond to disturbances are scarce.

A review of the life history, invasion process, and potential management of Clavelina lepadiformis Müller, 1776: a recent invasion of the northwest Atlantic [PDF]
Management of Biological Invasions, 2012 The colonial tunicate Clavelina lepadiformis is a recent invader to the northwest Atlantic and has the potential to cause ecological andeconomic harm. This paper provides a review of the biological and ecological characteristics of C.

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Ascidians are invertebrates that occupy a key phylogenetic position as a sister group of the vertebrates. The organization of their central nervous system (CNS), with cortex and medulla, indicates a plesiomorphic character of the gray and white matter of vertebrates, making this group of animals useful for studies of neurodegenerative events ...

Chimerism a natural ability to tolerate kin, evolutionary traits connecting mammalian and protochordates [PDF]
Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2009 In the middle of the 20th century, Owen (1945, 1954) and Billingham et al. (1953) immunological studies suggested that fetal exposure to foreign antigens during pregnancy induce immunologic tolerance in the fetus. Recently, Mold et al.
