MetabolomicsSponge exudates influence coral reef picoplankton dynamics
Coral reef sponges efficiently take up particulate and dissolved organic matter (DOM) from the water column and release compounds such as nucleosides, amino acids, and other dissolved metabolites to the surrounding reef via their exhalent seawater, but the influence of this process on reef picoplank...

MetabolomicsSponge exhalent seawater contains a unique chemical profile of dissolved organic matter
Sponges are efficient filter feeders, removing significant portions of particulate and dissolved organic matter (POM, DOM) from the water column. While the assimilation and respiration of POM and DOM by sponges and their abundant microbial symbiont communities have received much attention, there is ...

MetabolomicsMolecular profiling of sponge movement reveals an ancient contractile-inflammatory response

A hallmark of animals is the coordination of whole-body movement. Neurons and muscles are central to this; yet, coordinated movements also exist in sponges that lack these cell types. Sponges are sessile animals with a complex canal system for filter-feeding. They undergo whole-body movements res...

MetabolomicsMetabolome variability for two Mediterranean sponge species of the genus Haliclona: specificity, time, and space

INTRODUCTION: The study of natural variation of metabolites brings valuable information on the physiological state of the organisms as well as their phenotypic traits. In marine organisms, metabolome variability has mostly been addressed through targeted studies on metabolites of...

MetabolomicsOceanographic setting influences the prokaryotic community and metabolome in deep-sea sponges
Marine sponges (phylum Porifera) are leading organisms for the discovery of bioactive compounds from nature. Their often rich and species-specific microbiota is hypothesised to be producing many of these compounds. Yet, environmental influences on the sponge-associated microbiota and bioactive compo...

ProteomicsIncreased cellular detoxification, cytoskeletal activities and protein transport explain physiological stress in a lagoon sponge
Tropical lagoon-inhabiting organisms live in highly irradiated ecosystems and are particularly susceptible to thermal stress resulting from climate change. However, despite living close to their thermal maxima, stress response mechanisms found in these organisms are poorly understood. We used a nove...

TranscriptomicsTranscriptomic profiles of the Mediterranean sponge species Aplysina aerophoba upon wounding by the specialist grazer Tylodina perversa
In the seabed, chemical defences mediate inter- and intraspecific interactions and may determine organisms’ success, shaping the diversity and function of benthic communities. Sponges represent a prominent example of chemically-defended marine organisms with great ecological success. The ecological ...

ProteomicsCharacterization of a thaumarchaeal symbiont that drives incomplete nitrification in the tropical sponge Ianthella basta
Marine sponges represent one of the few eukaryotic groups that ubiquitously harbor symbiotic members of the Thaumarchaeota, which are important chemoautotrophic ammonia-oxidizers in many environments. However in most studies, direct demonstration of ammonia-oxidation by these archaea within sponges ...

MetabolomicsHigh microbiome and metabolome diversification in coexisting sponges with different bio-ecological traits

Marine sponges can host abundant and diverse microbiomes, which can largely influence the metabolism and other phenotypic traits of the host. However, information on the potential relationships between sponge microbiomes and metabolic signatures, other than secondary metabolites explored for biot...

ProteomicsComplete metabolic reconstruction of the microbiome of the model sponge Ianthella basta
Marine sponges are essential for coral reefs to thrive and harbour a diverse microbiome that is thought to contribute to host health. Although the overall function of sponge symbionts has been increasingly described, in-depth characterisation of each taxa remains challenging, with many sponge specie...
