The development of #salps differs from that of #ascidians in the presence of maternal cells called calymmocytes. This study of #embryogenesis in 2 salp species identifies distinct cleavage patterns & blastomere positioning, informing the study of their #evolution @plosbiology.org 🧪 plos.io/4bscc6j

Six3/6 acts downstream of canonical Wnt signaling to regulate the formation of anterior neural border-derived structures in ascidian embryos Highlighted Article: In ascidian embryos, canonical Wnt signaling limits the posterior extension of the most anterior structure, the palps, by activating Six3/6, which inhibits palps fate.

Simona Buonanno closes the 2nd day session at #biodiversity25 presenting benthic genomes in #ascidians. Botryllus schlosseri is a #species_complex. They sequenced 9 ascidian species, including 2 clades of B. schlosseri. BUSCO was higher than 90% for all the genomes.

Paedomorphic adaptations in a new Heterostigma species: a novel strategy for ascidians to live in soft-bottom habitats Inhabiting soft substrates presents complex challenges for some groups of sessile filter feeders. Among these, ascidians have independently evolved traits and strategies to live in such habitats. Paed...

In this study we discovered a new species of pyurid ascidian, with a unique adaptive ontogenetic shift. It is the only ascidian able to shift from a sessile to a motile phenotype, and it can move on the substrate!
