    • Enjoying the warming Mediterranean: Transcriptomic responses to temperature changes of a thermophilous keystone species in benthic communities 

      Pérez-Portela, Rocío; Riesgo, Ana; Wangensteen Fuentes, Owen Simon; Palacín, Creu; Turon, Xavier (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-07-29)
      Information about the genomic processes underlying responses to temperature changes is still limited in non-model marine invertebrates. In this sense, transcriptomic analyses can help to identify genes potentially related to thermal responses. We here investigated, via RNA-seq, whole-transcriptomic responses to increased and decreased temperatures in a thermophilous keystone sea urchin, <i>Arbacia ...

    • Spatio-temporal patterns of genetic variation in Arbacia lixula, a thermophilous sea urchin in expansion in the Mediterranean 

      Pérez-Portela, Rocío; Wangensteen Fuentes, Owen Simon; García-Cisneros, Alex; Valero-Jiménez, Claudio; Palacín, Creu; Turon, Xavier (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2018-06-14)
      The genetic structure of 13 populations of the amphiatlantic sea urchin <i>Arbacia lixula</i>, as well as temporal genetic changes in three of these localities, were assessed using ten hypervariable microsatellite loci. This thermophilous sea urchin is an important engineer species triggering the formation of barren grounds through its grazing activity. Its abundance seems to be increasing in most ...
