Abstract: The non-indigenous colonial tunicate Didemnum vexillum plagues many shellfish aquaculture operations around the world by smothering crop and gear and displacing juvenile bivalves. There are two populations of D. vexillum in Oregon, but little is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10530-021-02615-3
Abstract: Introductions of invasive, non-native species in the marine environment are increasing as human activity within coastal areas rises. Genetic datasets are useful tools to identify source populations, track routes of invasions, and illuminate the role… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/life11121377
Abstract: Tunicates are the sister group of vertebrates and thus occupy a key position for investigations into vertebrate innovations as well as into the consequences of the vertebrate-specific genome duplications. Nevertheless, tunicate genomes have not been… read more here.
