Primary culture of hemocytes from the Caribbean spiny lobster, Panulirus argus, and their susceptibility to Panulirus argus Virus 1 (PaV1).
Primary cultures of hemocytes from the Caribbean spiny lobster Panulirus argus were developed for studies on the in vitro propagation of Panulirus argus Virus 1 (PaV1). A modified Leibovitz L-15 medium supported the best survival of hemocytes in in vitro primary cultures. However, degradation of the cultures occurred rapidly in the presence of granulocytes. A Percoll step gradient was used to s...
متن کاملThe sensory basis of feeding behaviour in the Caribbean spiny lobster, Panulirus argus
A complex nervous system enables spiny lobsters to have a rich behavioural repertoire. The present paper discusses the ways in which the sensory systems of the Caribbean spiny lobster, Panulirus argus , particularly its chemosensory systems, are involved in feeding behaviour. It addresses the neural mechanisms of three aspects of their food-finding ability: detection, identification, and discri...
متن کاملA CUB-serine protease in the olfactory organ of the spiny lobster Panulirus argus.
csp, a gene encoding a protein with high sequence identity to trypsinlike serine protease and CUB domains, was identified from a cDNA library from the olfactory organ (antennular lateral flagellum) of the spiny lobster Panulirus argus. The full-length cDNA sequence of csp is 1801 bp, encoding a protein of 50.25 kD, with three domains: signal peptide, trypsinlike serine protease, and CUB (named ...
متن کاملThe occurrence of the provisional Brazilian subspecies of spiny lobster (Panulirus argus westonii) in Florida waters*
The Caribbean spiny lobster, Panulirus argus, is distributed from Brazil throughout the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico to approximately North Carolina and Bermuda (Holthius, 1991). It supports major commercial fi sheries in Florida, the Caribbean and Brazil. Commercially, P. argus is especially important to the state of Florida, where the spiny lobster fi shery ranks second only to shrimp in ...
متن کاملNeurolipofuscin is a measure of age in Panulirus argus, the Caribbean spiny lobster, in Florida.
Accurate age estimates for Panulirus argus, the commercially important Caribbean spiny lobster, would greatly enhance life history and population analyses. Most age approximations of P. argus are based on size and growth data, but size is generally considered a poor proxy for age of crustaceans in the field because of numerous environmental, density-dependent, and fishery-related factors. An es...
