Phototactic preference and its genetic basis in the planulae of the colonial Hydrozoan Hydractinia symbiolongicarpus

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Marine organisms with sessile adults commonly possess motile larval stages that make settlement decisions based on integrating environmental sensory cues. Phototaxis, the movement toward or away from light, is a common behavioral characteristic of aquatic and marine metazoan larvae, and of algae, protists, and fungi. In cnidarians, behavioral genomic investigations of motile planulae larvae ha...
