Interneuron is a useful term in invertebrateneuroscience. But it loses meaning for the staggering numbers of such cells in vertebrates, especially in the human CNS, where as noted they represent 99.9997% of the total. It is now used for neurons confined to particular regions of vertebrate nervous...
Insect immunity is basically composed of three parts: (1) the cuticle, which presents physical and chemical barriers to the outside world of microbes, (2) humoral responses, and (3) cellular responses. From: Journal of Invertebrate Pathology, 2012 ...

Bringing European river quality into line: an exercise to intercalibrate macro-invertebrate classification methods. Hydrobiologia 667:31- 48.Bennett, C., Owen, R., Birk, S., Buffagni, A., Erba, S., Mengin, N., Murray-Bligh, J., Ofenbock, G., Pardo, I., van de Bund, W., ...
Alternate replication of ONNVs in both vertebrate and invertebrate hosts may determine predominance of a particular codon at this locus in the viral quasispecies. However, no systematic study has previously tested this hypothesis in whole animals. We report here the results of the first study to ...
and aid in predicting food web dynamics. To support advances in trait-based research in open-ocean systems, we present the Pelagic Species Trait Database, an extensive resource documenting functional traits of 529 pelagic fish and invertebrate species in a single, open-source repository. We synthes...
Cnidarians are astonishingly diverse in body form and lifestyle, including the presence of a jellyfish stage in medusozoans and its absence in anthozoans. Here, we sequence the genomes of Aurelia aurita (a scyphozoan) and Morbakka virulenta (a cubozoan) to understand the molecular mechanisms ...
Microsporidia are obligate intracellular parasitic fungi that can infect a wide variety of organisms including vertebrate and invertebrate (particularly insects). Some species lead to severe syndromes in immunocompetent hosts and cause opportunistic infections in Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) patient...
and behavioral studies. These small organisms might lack much pathological resemblance with humans, but still, they have been proven as successful models for various diseases including AD. Therefore, the objective of this brief review is to discuss the potential role of the invertebrate and lower...
Only the most harsh, temporary, or grossly polluted lotic environments do not contain some representatives of this diverse and ecologically important group of organisms. By convention, the term “macro” refers to invertebrate fauna retained by a 500-μm mesh net or sieve. However, the early ...
