Induction of sexual reproduction in Brachionus plicatilis (Monogononta, Rotifera) by a density-dependent chemical cue
Induction of mixis (sexual reproduction) in rotifers of the genus Brachionus is believed to be triggered by a chemical that is released into the water and accumulates at high population densities. However, direct and conclusive evidence for this hypothesis is thus far lacking. In this study, two mass cultures of the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis were monitored as they grew from low to high popu...
متن کاملDiversity of sessile rotifers (Gnesiotrocha, Monogononta, Rotifera) in Thale Noi Lake, Thailand
In response to a clear gap in knowledge on the biodiversity of sessile Gnesiotrocha rotifers at both global as well as regional Southeast Asian scales, we performed a study of free-living colonial and epiphytic rotifers attached to fifteen aquatic plant species in Thale Noi Lake, the first Ramsar site in Thailand. We identified 44 different taxa of sessile rotifers, including thirty-nine fixose...
متن کاملThe taxonomy of Brachionus plicatilis species complex (Rotifera: Monogononta) from the Southern Kerala (India) with a note on their repro- ductive preferences
This paper deals with the species of Brackionu.s plicatilis complex (Rotifera: Monogononta) found in a brackishwater lake,Veli-Aakulam, in Southern Kerala. Morphological and reproductive potential studies revealed that these rotifers have sigiificant morphological distinction with regard to ecological preferences. The three related rotifers in our study were classified as Brachionu.~ plicatilis...
متن کاملPsammon rotifers in Central Vietnam, with the descriptions of three new species (Rotifera: Monogononta).
In order to address the dearth of information on Rotifera in Vietnam, and especially on rotifers inhabiting freshwater psammon in Southeast Asia, we collected and examined twenty-five hygropsammon samples from Bau Thiem Lake, Thua Thien Hue Province, central Vietnam. A total of eighty-nine species-level rotifer taxa were identified, belonging to 21 genera and 13 families. Of these, 48 taxa (54%...
متن کاملOn Pulchritia new genus, with a reappraisal of the genera of Trichotriidae (Rotifera, Monogononta)
During the study of rotifers collected in Eastern DR Congo, we rediscovered specimens that correspond to Monostyla dorsicornuta Van Oye, 1926. This species, which we redescribe, had not been seen since it's summary description, and lacked type material. Our analysis reveals that the animal belongs to Trichotriidae rather than to Lecane (presently considered to include Monostyla) or Lecanidae, b...
