Experimental and theoretical studies of circadian rhythms have focused largely on the period, on mutants that alter it and on phase shifts, and this focus has driven the identification of clock genes ...
Accurate pressure probing in extreme environments demands robust sensors capable of withstanding harsh conditions. Herein, we report the synthesis of Eu2+-doped Al2O3 (Al2O3:Eu2+) nanorods via a plasm...
The mesopelagic zone, between 100 and 1000 m depth, contains up to 90% of marine vertebrate biomass. Mesopelagic fishes are key components of these ecosystems through their feeding interactions and pl...
Bioluminescent organisms represent a largely untapped resource at the interface of biodiversity, bioentrepreneurship, and sustainable ecotourism. Although bioluminescence is well studied biologically,...
Bioluminescence serves important ecological functions in prey capture, predator avoidance, and mate attraction. To investigate the genomic basis of bioluminescence evolution in marine cnidarians, we f...
The early decades of neuroscience drew inspiration from the rich diversity of animal life, but in recent years, the field has converged on a narrow set of canonical models. These organisms provide acc...
Counterillumination is a widespread camouflage strategy in mesopelagic organisms, whereby ventral light emission reduces visibility from below. While its predator-avoidance camouflage function is well...
Bioluminescence is visible light produced by living organisms through luciferase-catalyzed oxidation of luciferins. Although widespread in anthozoans, the molecular basis of their light emission remai...
