Journal Article
Raheem, D., Breugelmans, K., Wade, C. M., Naggs, F., & Backeljau, T. (2017). Exploring the shell-based taxonomy of the Sri Lankan land snail Corilla H. and A. Adams, 1855 (Pulmonata: Corillidae) using mitochondrial DNA. Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 107, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ympev.2016.12.020

The land-snail genus Corilla is endemic to Sri Lanka and India’s Western Ghats. The ten extant Sri Lankan species belong to two distinct shell forms that are associated respectively with lowland and montane rainforest. We here present the first molec...

© 2016, The Author(s). Time series foraminiferal data were obtained from samples collected from three sites at Brancaster Overy Staithe, Burnham Overy Staithe and Thornham on the North Norfolk coast over a 1-year period. At each collection point, six... Read More about Seasonal and Spatial Variations of Saltmarsh Benthic Foraminiferal Communities from North Norfolk, England.

The genetic diversity, phylogeography and morphology of Elphidiidae (Foraminifera) in the Northeast Atlantic (2016)
Journal Article
Darling, K. F., Schweizera, M., Luise Knudsen, K., Evans, K. M., Bird, C., Roberts, A., Filipsson, H. L., Kim, J.-H., Gudmundsson, G., Wade, C., Sayer, M. D., & Austin, W. E. (2016).

Geochemical imprints of genotypic variants of Globigerina bulloides in the Arabian Sea (2016)
Journal Article
Sadekov, A., Darling, K., Ishimura, T., Wade, C., Kimoto, K., Deo Singh, A., Anand, P., Kroon, D., Jung, S., Ganssen, G., Ganeshram, R., Tsunogai, U., & Elderfield, H. (2016). Geochemical imprints of genotypic variants of Globigerina bulloides in the Arabian Sea. Paleoceanography, 31(10), 1440– 1452. https://doi.org/10.1002/2016PA002947

Planktonic foraminifera record oceanic conditions in their shell geochemistry. Many palaeoenvironmental studies have used fossil planktonic foraminifera to constrain past seawater properties by defining species based on their shell morphology. Recent...

Formin Is Associated with Left-Right Asymmetry in the Pond Snail and the Frog (2016)
Journal Article
Davison, A., McDowell, G. S., Holden, J. M., Johnson, H. F., Koutsovoulos, G. D., Liu, M. M., Hulpiau, P., Roy, F. V., Wade, C. M., Banerjee, R., Yang, F., Chiba, S., Davey, J. W., Jackson, D.

While components of the pathway that establishes left-right asymmetry have been identified in diverse animals, from vertebrates to flies, it is striking that the genes involved in the first symmetry-breaking step remain wholly unknown in the most obv...

Biogeographic distribution and habitat association of Ammonia genetic variants around the coastline of Great Britain (2016)
Journal Article
Saad, S., & Wade, C. (2016). Biogeographic distribution and habitat association of Ammonia genetic variants around the coastline of Great Britain. Marine Micropaleontology, 124, 54-62. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marmicro.2016.01.004

High morphological variation and the lack of clearly defined morphological criteria for identification have led to difficulties in the identification of species in the foraminiferal genus Ammonia. It is often difficult to decide if morphological vari... Read More about Biogeographic distribution and habitat association of Ammonia genetic variants around the coastline of Great Britain.
