Effects of reduced salinity on the biochemical composition (lipid, protein) of zoea 1 decapod crustacean larvae
Effects of reduced salinities on dry weight (DW) and biochemical composition (total lipid and protein contents) of zoea 1 larvae were evaluated in four decapod crustacean species differing in salinity tolerance (Cancer pagurus, Homarus gammarus, Carcinus maenas, Chasmagnathus granulata). The larvae were exposed to two different reduced salinities (15xand 25xin C. granulata, 20x and 25x in the o...
متن کاملGrowth, tolerance to low salinity, and osmoregulation in decapod crustacean larvae
Marine invertebrate larvae suffer high mortality due to abiotic and biotic stress. In planktotrophic larvae, mortality may be minimised if growth rates are maximised. In estuaries and coastal habitats however, larval growth may be limited by salinity stress, which is a key factor selecting for particular physiological adaptations such as osmoregulation. These mechanisms may be energetically cos...
متن کاملCalcium ion-dependent myosin from decapod-crustacean muscles.
Ca2+ regulation of arthropod actomyosin adenosine triphosphatase is associated with both the thin filaments, as in vertebrates, and with the myosin, as in molluscs. The actomyosin of decapod-crustacean fast muscles was previously considered to be an exception, displaying only a Ca2+-regulatory system linked to the thin filaments and not a myosin-linked regulatory system. In the present study, m...
متن کاملCrustacean Parasites as Phylogenetic Indicators in Decapod Evolution
The evolutionary history of decapods and their parasites is assessed with particular reference to the use of parasites as proxies for host phylogeny. We focused on two groups of obligate parasites that use decapods as their definitive hosts: parasitic isopods of the family Bopyridae and,parasitic barnacles of the superorder RhizO$<ephala. Bopyrids and rhizocephalans differ in that the rhizoceph...
متن کاملRegulation of life-long neurogenesis in the decapod crustacean brain.
This article provides an overview of our understanding of life-long neurogenesis in the decapod crustacean brain, where the proliferation of sensory and interneurons is controlled by many of the same factors as is neurogenesis in the mammalian brain. The relative simplicity, spatial organization and accessibility of the crustacean brain provide opportunities to examine specific neuronal pathway...
