Bioluminescence is uncommon among nudibranchs and snails, and Bathydevius caudactylus represents an independent evolution of this trait—just the third time bioluminescence has evolved in ...

Bioluminescence is widely used for in vivo imaging of nude mice. By conjugating luciferase protein to quantum dots, bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) turns these useful fluorophores ...

This method of protection can keep almost all predators at bay - but not the kaleidoscopically colourful sea slug. Nudibranchs, commonly known as sea slugs, are a group of shell-less marine molluscs.
