Journal ArticleDOI
A widespread and distinctive form of amphipod intersexuality not induced by known feminising parasites.
TL;DR: The hypothesis that internal and external intersexuality are divergent phenotypes with separate causal mechanisms are supported and point to the existence of a distinct and geographically widespread form of amphipod inter sexuality caused by an unknown factor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemicals with increasingly complex modes of action result in greater variation in sensitivity between earthworm species.
Alex Robinson,Elma Lahive,Stephen Short,Heather Carter,Darren Sleep,Gloria Pereira,Peter Kille,David J. Spurgeon +7 more
TL;DR: Measurements of tissue concentrations indicated the potential importance of toxicokinetics in explaining species sensitivity variations for chlorpyrifos and cypermethrin, and difference in toxicodynamics, based on mode of action specificity and receptor complexity was reflected in the magnitude of sensitivity variation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of the pantropical earthworm Pontoscolex corethrurus (Rhinodrilidae, Clitellata): Mitogenome characterization and phylogenetic positioning
Ana C. Conrado,Hugo Arruda,David W. G. Stanton,Samuel W. James,Peter Kille,George G. Brown,Elodie da Silva,Lise Dupont,S. Taheri,Andrew John Morgan,Nelson Simões,Armindo Rodrigues,Rafael Montiel,Luís Cunha,Luís Cunha +14 more
TL;DR: This is the first record of a mitochondrial genome within the Rhinodrilidae family and has the same gene content and structure as in other sequenced earthworms but unusual among invertebrates it hasseveral overlapping open reading frames.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pb and Zn imaging and in situ speciation at the geogenic/biogenic interface in sentinel earthworms using electron microprobe and synchrotron micro-focus X-ray spectroscopy
Andrew John Morgan,Peter Kille,Andrew J. Bennett,Michael O'Reilly,Peter Charles Fisher,John M. Charnock +5 more
TL;DR: Zn spectra in ingested soil and in tissues more closely resembled Zn(3)(PO(4))(2) than ZnS; Zn speciation in tissues gave a best fit for Zn to the inner shell of 4 oxygens at 1.94 Å and much of the Pb detectable in gut contents was co-distributed with S.
