Members of phylum Cnidaria are an ancient group of venomous animals and rely on a number of specialized tissues to produce toxins in order to fulfil a range of ecological roles including prey capture, defence against predators, digestion and aggressive encounters. However, limited comprehensive analyses of the evolution and expression of toxin genes currently exist for cnidarian species. In this study,...
Background Innate immune genes tend to be highly conserved in metazoans, even in early divergent lineages such as Cnidaria (jellyfish, corals, hydroids and sea anemones) and Porifera (sponges). However, constant and diverse selection pressures on the immune system have driven the expansion and diversification of different immune gene families in a lineage-specific manner. To investigate how the innate...
