Seasonal tissue-specific gene expression reveals reproductive and stress-related transcriptional systems in wild crown-of-thorns starfish

M. Morin, M. Jonsson, C. Wang, D. J. Craik, S. M. Degnan, B. Degnan

This study identifies seasonal gene expression changes in wild crown-of-thorns starfish, revealing reproductive and stress-related transcriptional systems linked to summer breeding and oogenesis.

Pluripotency and the origin of animal multicellularity

S. Sogabe, W. Hatleberg, K. Kocot, T. Say, D. Stoupin, K. Roper, S. Fernandez-Valverde, S. Degnan, B. Degnan

The paper compares sponge cell types with choanoflagellates to test the hypothesis that animals evolved from a unicellular ancestor, finding that sponge choanocytes are distinct from choanoflagellates and suggest a more complex origin of multicellularity.
