Tag: platynereis dumerilii
We generated a transcriptome from developmental stages of the annelid Platynereis dumerilii using the Iso-Seq method from PacBio, which outputs full-length transcripts and resolved isoforms. The dataset is now available on Zenodo: Vellutini, B. C., Handberg-Thorsager, M. & Tomancak, P. (2024). Platynereis dumerilii full-length transcriptome of developmental stages. doi:10.5281/zenodo.14250773 The transcriptome was used for the […]
Every time I open Spotify, I see the pattern of engrailed expression in an early Platynereis larva. Once you see it, there is no turning back!

Arthropod-like expression patterns of engrailed […]
I’ve filmed the nemertean worm Lineus longissimus feeding on dead annelids! An example of necrophagy.
