Abstract Supervisor; Dr. Verena Tunnicliffe Vestimentifera inhabit hydrothermal vents, cold-water seeps and other marine reducing habitats. The objectives of this study were to analyse phylogenetic relationships among the extant species and their affinities to perviate and moniliferan Pogonophora and Polychaeta. The phylogeny was reconstructed using morphological characters to test phylogenetic hypotheses based on molecular data. Morphological characters were partly extracted from the literature and partly gained throughout study of gross morphological and anatomical investigations and light, transmission and scanning electron microscopy. Three aspects of morphology were examined in detail in nine vestimentiferan species. The excretory system differs among the vestimentiferan species in the number of excretory pores, absence/presence of excretory papillae and grooves and shape of the excretory ducts. The anatomy of the excretory system resembles that shared by the polychaete families Serpulidae. Sabellidae and Sabellariidae. Chaetal ultrastructure and chaetogenesis show patterns similar to uncini in polychaetes. Contraiy to published accounts, the septa dividing the opisthosomal segments only bear musculature on their posterior faces. A rudimentary gut and anus are present in opisthosomes of specimens up to adult size. The blood vascular system includes an intravasal body in the dorsal vessel with ultrastructural characteristics similar to intravasal tissue in Terebellidae, Ampharetidae, Flabelligeridae and Serpulidae, and is probably involved in hemoglobin production. Hemocytes were detected in many blood vessels, most of them attached to the vascular lamina. The sinus valvatus is a specialised region of the anterior ventral vessel, apparently unique to vestimentiferans. The wall of the dorsal vessel is formed by myoepithelial cells, representing a coelomyarian type of double obliquely striated musculature. Phylogenetic analyses including a total of 17 vestimentiferan species and three perviate species as outgroups support molecular interpretations that the vestimentiferan species inhabiting basalt-hosted vents of the Eastern Pacific represent a derived monophyletic clade. According to the reconstructed phylogeny, the ancestral habitat of Vestimentifera was deep-water sedimented vent sites in the Western Pacific. Analysis of the relationships among Pogonophora and six polychaete families placed Ill Pogonophora at the base of a clade including Sabellidae, Serpulidae and Sabellariidae. The Oweniidae represent the sister group to this clade. Examiners: Dr. V. Tunnicliffe, supervisor (Department of Biology) :_ Dr. L. 1^ Page (D eg^m ent of Biology) Dr. R. D.

  • Mitochondrial Genomes of Two Polydora
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Mitochondrial genomes of two Polydora (Spionidae) species provide further evidence that mitochondrial architecture in the Sedentaria (Annelida) is not conserved Lingtong Ye1*, Tuo Yao1, Jie Lu1, Jingzhe Jiang1 & Changming Bai2 Contrary to the early evidence, which indicated that the mitochondrial architecture in one of the two major annelida clades, Sedentaria, is relatively conserved, a handful of relatively recent studies found evidence that some species exhibit elevated rates of mitochondrial architecture evolution. We sequenced complete mitogenomes belonging to two congeneric shell-boring Spionidae species that cause considerable economic losses in the commercial marine mollusk aquaculture: Polydora brevipalpa and Polydora websteri. The two mitogenomes exhibited very similar architecture. In comparison to other sedentarians, they exhibited some standard features, including all genes encoded on the same strand, uncommon but not unique duplicated trnM gene, as well as a number of unique features. Their comparatively large size (17,673 bp) can be attributed to four non-coding regions larger than 500 bp. We identifed an unusually large (putative) overlap of 14 bases between nad2 and cox1 genes in both species. Importantly, the two species exhibited completely rearranged gene orders in comparison to all other available mitogenomes. Along with Serpulidae and Sabellidae, Polydora is the third identifed sedentarian lineage that exhibits disproportionally elevated rates of mitogenomic architecture rearrangements. Selection analyses indicate that these three lineages also exhibited relaxed purifying selection pressures. Abbreviations NCR Non-coding region PCG Protein-coding gene Metazoan mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) usually encode the set of 37 genes, comprising 2 rRNAs, 22 tRNAs, and 13 proteins, encoded on both genomic strands.

Contrary to their relatives from hydrothermal vents, sulfide uptake for symbionts occurs within the anoxic subsurface sediment, in the posterior „root‟ region of the animal. This study reports on an integrated microbiological and geochemical investigation of the cold seep tubeworm Escarpia southwardae collected at the Regab pockmark (Gulf of Guinea). Our aim was to further constrain the links between the animal and its symbiotic bacteria, and their environment.

Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd Evolutionary crossroads in developmental biology: cyclostomes (lamprey and hagfish) Sebastian M. Shimeld1,* and Phillip C. J. Donoghue2 Summary and is appealing because it implies a gradual assembly of vertebrate Lampreys and hagfish, which together are known as the characters, and supports the hagfish and lampreys as experimental cyclostomes or ‘agnathans’, are the only surviving lineages of models for distinct craniate and vertebrate evolutionary grades (i.e. jawless fish. They diverged early in vertebrate evolution, perceived ‘stages’ in evolution). However, only comparative before the origin of the hinged jaws that are characteristic of morphology provides support for this phylogenetic hypothesis. The gnathostome (jawed) vertebrates and before the evolution of competing hypothesis, which unites lampreys and hagfish as sister paired appendages. However, they do share numerous taxa in the clade Cyclostomata, thus equally related to characteristics with jawed vertebrates. Studies of cyclostome gnathostomes, has enjoyed unequivocal support from phylogenetic development can thus help us to understand when, and how, analyses of protein-coding sequence data (e.g. Delarbre et al., 2002; key aspects of the vertebrate body evolved. Here, we Furlong and Holland, 2002; Kuraku et al., 1999). Support for summarise the development of cyclostomes, highlighting the cyclostome theory is now overwhelming, with the recognition of key species studied and experimental methods available. We novel families of non-coding microRNAs that are shared then discuss how studies of cyclostomes have provided exclusively by hagfish and lampreys (Heimberg et al., 2010).

  • Phylum Porifera
    790 Chapter 28 | Invertebrates updated as new information is collected about the organisms of each phylum. 28.1 | Phylum Porifera By the end of this section, you will be able to do the following: • Describe the organizational features of the simplest multicellular organisms • Explain the various body forms and bodily functions of sponges As we have seen, the vast majority of invertebrate animals do not possess a defined bony vertebral endoskeleton, or a bony cranium. However, one of the most ancestral groups of deuterostome invertebrates, the Echinodermata, do produce tiny skeletal “bones” called ossicles that make up a true endoskeleton, or internal skeleton, covered by an epidermis. We will start our investigation with the simplest of all the invertebrates—animals sometimes classified within the clade Parazoa (“beside the animals”). This clade currently includes only the phylum Placozoa (containing a single species, Trichoplax adhaerens), and the phylum Porifera, containing the more familiar sponges (Figure 28.2). The split between the Parazoa and the Eumetazoa (all animal clades above Parazoa) likely took place over a billion years ago. We should reiterate here that the Porifera do not possess “true” tissues that are embryologically homologous to those of all other derived animal groups such as the insects and mammals. This is because they do not create a true gastrula during embryogenesis, and as a result do not produce a true endoderm or ectoderm. But even though they are not considered to have true tissues, they do have specialized cells that perform specific functions like tissues (for example, the external “pinacoderm” of a sponge acts like our epidermis).

  • Introduction to the Bilateria and the Phylum Xenacoelomorpha Triploblasty and Bilateral Symmetry Provide New Avenues for Animal Radiation
    CHAPTER 9 Introduction to the Bilateria and the Phylum Xenacoelomorpha Triploblasty and Bilateral Symmetry Provide New Avenues for Animal Radiation long the evolutionary path from prokaryotes to modern animals, three key innovations led to greatly expanded biological diversification: (1) the evolution of the eukaryote condition, (2) the emergence of the A Metazoa, and (3) the evolution of a third germ layer (triploblasty) and, perhaps simultaneously, bilateral symmetry. We have already discussed the origins of the Eukaryota and the Metazoa, in Chapters 1 and 6, and elsewhere. The invention of a third (middle) germ layer, the true mesoderm, and evolution of a bilateral body plan, opened up vast new avenues for evolutionary expan- sion among animals. We discussed the embryological nature of true mesoderm in Chapter 5, where we learned that the evolution of this inner body layer fa- cilitated greater specialization in tissue formation, including highly specialized organ systems and condensed nervous systems (e.g., central nervous systems). In addition to derivatives of ectoderm (skin and nervous system) and endoderm (gut and its de- Classification of The Animal rivatives), triploblastic animals have mesoder- Kingdom (Metazoa) mal derivatives—which include musculature, the circulatory system, the excretory system, Non-Bilateria* Lophophorata and the somatic portions of the gonads.
