这项研究提供了第一个观察，伞形组织可以导致几乎所有的身体结构的形成，在水母的命令Rupstomeae。1892年，在奥地利维也纳动物园和巴西圣保罗大学的实验室中，观察了两个倒置水母Cassiopea xamachana Bigelow的再生过程。这个过程是由一次受伤引发的，并以两套新的身体结构的形成而结束。我们的观察提供了证据，C。xamachana具有超过先前记录的隐藏再生能力。
This study provides the first observation that umbrellar tissue can lead to the formation of virtually all body structures in jellyfish of the order Rhizostomeae. The regeneration process was observed in two specimens of the upside-down jellyfish Cassiopea xamachana Bigelow, 1892, one housed at the Vienna Zoo, Austria and the other in a laboratory at the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil. The process was triggered by an injury and ended with the formation of two new sets of body structures. Our observation offers evidence that C. xamachana has a hidden regenerative capacity exceeding that previously recorded.
