Ephydatia muelleri Trinity transcriptome
2017-11-08
ABSTRACT 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...

Hill, April L, Camilli, Sara, Dwaah, Henry, Kornegay, Benjamin, Lay, Christine A, Hill, Malcolm S
In many freshwater habitats, green algae form intracellular symbioses with a variety of heterotrophic host taxa including several species of freshwater sponge. These sponges perform important ecological roles in their habitats, and the poriferan:green algae partnerships offers unique...

Spongilla lacustris Trinity transcriptome
2014-02-27
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...
