This study characterizes the photosymbiotic relationship between Convolutriloba macropyga and Tetraselmis algae, showing distinct spatial and functional interactions between symbionts and host tissues.

This study shows that acoels lack conserved immune genes, leading to increased pathogen susceptibility in photosymbiotic species.

This study identifies and characterizes Cilin, an ancient metazoan intermediate filament protein, showing its role in cilia arrangement and tissue architecture across ctenophores and other animals.

This paper analyzes the genome of Osedax frankpressi to show how genetic changes enable symbiotic digestion of bone, with reduced immunity genes and expanded protease genes.
