A study by UNIGE and EMBL shows how differences in tissue mechanical properties shape the diversity of forms across species.

There are thousands of different species of sea anemones in the ocean with some living as far deep as 32,000 feet. Anemones are marine invertebrates that are closely related to jellyfish. This ...

The clownfish-anemone living arrangement is one of the most widely recognized examples of symbiosis. Researchers have made a ...

Scientists reveal new lineages of giant sea anemones in Japan and their surprising associations with anemonefish. Researchers at the Marine Eco-Evo-Devo Unit and Marine Genomics Unit at the Okinawa ...

A team of researchers has uncovered a direct genetic link between fluorescence and color in sea anemones -- those soft and tentacled tide pool creatures often encountered by beachgoers. For the first ...

A 2023 marine heat wave in the central Red Sea caused 100% of monitored sea anemones to bleach, followed by the death of 94-100% of clownfish and 66-94% of the anemones across three surveyed reefs.

The Red Sea was thought to host ecosystems resilient to warming waters, but a 2023 heatwave proves otherwise. A juvenile Red Sea anemonefish, also called a clownfish, looks out from between the ...

For the first time, a team of researchers at Stanford University and UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography has uncovered a direct genetic link between fluorescence and color in sea ...
