This study examines the algal symbiosis in Spurilla braziliana, finding limited morphological adaptations and absence of associated bacteria, suggesting a primitive symbiotic state.

The paper identifies that pearl oysters release exosomes containing species-specific RNA into the environment, suggesting a new role for aquatic exosomes in inter-organismal communication and ecological monitoring.

This paper presents the first chromosome-level genome assembly of the Greenland shark, identifying genetic features associated with its extreme longevity and deep-sea adaptations.

This study sequenced and analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome of Spurilla braziliana, revealing its phylogenetic placement within the Aeolidioidea superfamily.

This study compares age-associated transcriptome changes in zebrafish and rat to identify common and species-specific aging features.

This study uses spatial transcriptomics to analyze zebrafish trunk muscle structure and growth, identifying spatial gene expression patterns and developmental processes in different muscle types.

The paper investigates the role of PIWI/piRNA in somatic tissues of the pearl oyster Pinctada fucata, showing that piRNA0001 regulates hundreds of endogenous genes through differential expression.

The paper constructs a chromosome-level genome of Gasterosteus nipponicus using ultra-dense linkage analysis from single-cell sperm sequencing data.

This paper introduces a method using hybrid organisms to generate high-resolution linkage maps at lower cost and higher density for pufferfish species.
