SUMMARY Several inorganic compounds of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are key to ocean ecology because, among other effects, they sustain primary production. After discovering in the 1980s that sponges can be both source and sink of such nutrients, much has been learned, including that fluxes...

Supplementary Files for: Sponge behaviour and the chemical basis of responses: a post-genomic view
Download2019-05-25
Sponges perceive and respond to a range of stimuli. How they do this is still difficult to pin down despite now having transcriptomes and genomes of an array of species. Here we evaluate the current understanding of sponge behaviour and present new observations on sponge activity in situ. We also...

Sycon coactum - transcriptome

Sponges (Porifera) are among the earliest evolving metazoans. Their filter-feeding body plan based on choanocyte chambers organized into a complex aquiferous system is so unique among metazoans that it either reflects an early divergence from other animals prior to the evolution of features such...

Khan, Amanda S., Chu, Jackson W. F., Leys, Sally P.
Sponges link the microbial loop with benthic communities by feeding on bacteria. Glass sponge reefs on the continental shelf of western Canada have extremely high grazing rates, consuming seven times more particulate carbon than can be supplied by vertical flux alone. Unlike many sponges, the...

Background: The Wnt signaling pathway is uniquely metazoan and used in many processes during development, including the formation of polarity and body axes. In sponges, one of the earliest diverging animal groups, Wnt pathway genes have diverse expression patterns in different groups including...
