Mutations affecting tail and notochord development in the ascidian Ciona savignyi.
Ascidians are among the most distant chordate relatives of the vertebrates. However, ascidians share many features with vertebrates including a notochord and hollow dorsal nerve cord. A screen for N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU)-induced mutations affecting early development in the ascidian Ciona savignyi resulted in the isolation of a number of mutants including the complementing notochord mutants ...
متن کاملMetamorphosis of the invasive ascidian Ciona savignyi: environmental variables and chemical exposure
In this study, the effects of environmental variables on larval metamorphosis of the solitary ascidian Ciona savignyi were investigated in a laboratory setting. The progression of metamorphic changes were tracked under various temperature, photoperiod, substrate, larval density, and vessel size regimes. Metamorphosis was maximised at 18 °C, 12:12 h subdued light:dark, smooth polystyrene substra...
متن کاملStudy of Cis-regulatory Elements in the Ascidian Ciona intestinalis
The ascidian (sea squirt) C. intestinalis has become an important model organism for the study of cis-regulation. This is largely due to the technology that has been developed for assessing cis-regulatory activity through the use of transient reporter transgenes introduced into fertilized eggs. This technique allows the rapid and inexpensive testing of endogenous or altered DNA for regulatory a...

OF THE THESIS Alzheimer’s Disease Investigation in the Ascidian Model Organism: Characterization of a Homologous Amyloid Precursor Protein in Ciona Savignyi and Intestinalis by Miles Taylor Whedbee Master of Science in Biology with a Concentration in Molecular Biology San Diego State University, 2014 The broad objective of this project is to provide supporting evidence for the use of the ascidi...
متن کاملDiploid genome reconstruction of Ciona intestinalis and comparative analysis with Ciona savignyi.
One of the main goals in genome sequencing projects is to determine a haploid consensus sequence even when clone libraries are constructed from homologous chromosomes. However, it has been noticed that haplotypes can be inferred from genome assemblies by investigating phase conservation in sequenced reads. In this study, we seek to infer haplotypes, a diploid consensus sequence, from the genome...
