DOI: 10.1007/s00128-021-03305-5
Abstract: Metazoan parasites and their hosts experience the environmental influence of the seasonal presence of Western and Eastern subzones with different oceanographic conditions on the Yucatan continental shelf (YS). In addition, natural seeps and oil transport… read more here.

Metazoan Parasite Life Cycles: Significance for Fish Mariculture.
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Trends in parasitology"
DOI: 10.1016/j.pt.2020.07.011
Abstract: Marine fish are a nutritious and high-value food commodity, but many wild-capture fisheries are in decline. Thus, marine fish culture is expected to expand greatly in coming years. Management of disease is a major problem… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s0022149x2200013x
Abstract: Abstract The heterogeneous landscape of Nicaragua harbours a large diversity of freshwater fishes. The great Nicaraguan lakes, Managua and Nicaragua, and several adjacent crater lakes harbour numerous endemic fish species. However, information about their parasite… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/database/baab084
Abstract: Nucleotide sequences reference collections or databases are fundamental components in DNA barcoding and metabarcoding data analyses pipelines. In such analyses, the accurate taxonomic assignment is a crucial aspect, relying directly on the availability of comprehensive… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/gbe/evx181
Abstract: Abstract Animal tissues need to be properly oxygenated for carrying out catabolic respiration and, as such, natural selection has presumably favored special molecules that can reversibly bind and transport oxygen. Hemoglobins, hemocyanins, and hemerythrins (Hrs)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/nar/gkaa886
Abstract: Abstract Alternative splicing is widespread throughout eukaryotic genomes and greatly increases transcriptomic diversity. Many alternative isoforms have functional roles in developmental processes and are precisely temporally regulated. To facilitate the study of alternative splicing in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.abi5884
Abstract: Animal genomes show networks of deeply conserved gene linkages whose phylogenetic scope and chromosomal context remain unclear. Here, we report chromosome-scale conservation of synteny among bilaterians, cnidarians, and sponges and use comparative analysis to reconstruct… read more here.

DOI: 10.1590/2317-4889201720170125
Abstract: Following the rise of metazoans, the beginning of bioclasticity and substrate competition, the saga of microbial mats was in a fluctuating decline in the end of the Neoproterozoic era. Increases in diversity during the Phanerozoic… read more here.

DOI: 10.7554/elife.24176
Abstract: The role of the cellular microenvironment in enabling metazoan tissue genesis remains obscure. Ctenophora has recently emerged as one of the earliest-branching extant animal phyla, providing a unique opportunity to explore the evolutionary role of… read more here.
