There is growing interest in the use of cnidarians (corals, sea anemones, jellyfish and hydroids)
to investigate the evolution of key aspects of animal development, such as the formation …

Sea anemones are seemingly primitive animals that, along with corals, jellyfish, and hydras,
constitute the oldest eumetazoan phylum, the Cnidaria. Here, we report a comparative …

Cnidarians (corals, anemones, jellyfish and hydras) are a diverse group of animals of interest
to evolutionary biologists, ecologists and developmental biologists. With the publication of …

Developmental processes in multicellular animals depend on an array of signal transduction
pathways. Studies of model organisms have identified a number of such pathways and …

The freshwater cnidarian Hydra was first described in 1702 1 and has been the object of
study for 300 years. Experimental studies of Hydra between 1736 and 1744 culminated in the …

The cellular and molecular mechanisms that underlie species-specific membrane fusion
between male and female gametes remain largely unknown. Here, by use of gene discovery …

Two new therapies, percutaneous nephrostolithotomy and extracorporeal shock wave
lithotripsy, are revolutionizing the treatment of upper urinary tract calculi. We report the success …

Animal genomes show networks of deeply conserved gene linkages whose phylogenetic
scope and chromosomal context remain unclear. Here, we report chromosome-scale …
