Understanding the molecular and cellular processes that underpin animal development are crucial for understanding the diversity of body plans found on the planet today. Because of their abundance in the fossil record, and tractability as a model system i
Labeled dots indicate recognizable points in the time dynamics to ease comparison between the panels. However, we also found that when the island size decreased below a critical threshold size, the aggressive strategy became fixed in the population. At island sizes below the threshold the success ...
First-order sensory processing centers in the protocerebrum ofE. spinosa. Immunolabeled samples shown either in MIP (B,E–H) or in blend mode (C). Yellow arrowheads mark the optic nerve branch targeting the antero-median neuropil. Red arrowheads point to the optic nerve branch entering the c...
Detailed description of the basic anatomy and tissue structure of corals is well-established48,51,52,53,54,55. However, the complex terminology used to describe the histological structure of coral tissues has long been challenging and often contradictory55. This is in large part because the coral...
Skeletogenesis in thesea urchinembryo is an important model system for the emergence ofanatomythrough morphogenetic processes (Ettensohn, 2013;Shashikant, Khor, & Ettensohn, 2018), and as a system to investigate the evolution of echinoderm development (Erkenbrack & Davidson, 2015;Ettensohn, 2009;...
A similar uptake distribution is observed using fluorescently labeled, heat-killed E. coli cells, confirming the physiological relevance of BSA-coated bead experiments (Figures S1G–S1G″). Interested to explore whether endocytosed microspheres become mobilized, we used a 4-h incubation pulse of 20...
RecQ family labeled with an arc was not further subdivided, as different members could not be distinguished from each other. Nevertheless, 49 genes from the YHSC were annotated as WRN, far more than those from other species. (G) Phylogeny built with proteins containing the impB/mucB/samB ...
