Hydrodynamics, shell shape, behavior and survivorship in the owl limpet Lottia gigantea.
On wave-swept rocky shores, limpets are subjected to water velocities in excess of 20 m s(-1), which may impose large hydrodynamic forces. Despite the extreme severity of this flow environment, predictions from conical models suggest that limpets' shells are typically far from the optimal shape that would minimize the risk of dislodgment, a deviation that is allowed by the high tenacity of the ...
متن کاملGenetic diversity and population structure of the size- selectively harvested owl limpet, Lottia gigantea
Size-selective harvesting is one of the most widespread anthropogenic impacts on marine species. The loss of larger (older) individuals due to such harvesting has numerous cascading effects on the biology of affected species and populations, including changes in life history, demography, reproductive output, and even ecological interactions (Fenberg & Roy 2008). Size-selective harvesting has be...
متن کاملThe Nuclear Receptors of Biomphalaria glabrata and Lottia gigantea: Implications for Developing New Model Organisms
Nuclear receptors (NRs) are transcription regulators involved in an array of diverse physiological functions including key roles in endocrine and metabolic function. The aim of this study was to identify nuclear receptors in the fully sequenced genome of the gastropod snail, Biomphalaria glabrata, intermediate host for Schistosoma mansoni and compare these to known vertebrate NRs, with a view t...
متن کاملThermal physiology of the fingered limpet Lottia digitalis under emersion and immersion.
Marine animals living high in the rocky intertidal zone experience long durations of aerial emersion, sometimes enduring rapid increases in temperature. To date, much of our understanding of the thermal physiology of intertidal organisms comes from studies in which organisms are exposed to increasing temperatures when immersed, with the added effect of aerial emersion rarely considered. In this...
متن کاملAdolescent Development Determines the Effects of Agonistic Social Stress on Rat Behavior and Locus Coeruleus Physiology
Stress is a causal factor in the development of many psychological disorders such as depression, anxiety, drug addiction, and conduct disorder. The degree to which stress affects the development of these disorders depends on several factors including the nature of the stressor, it’s timing with respect to critical periods in brain development, and genetic predispositions towards resilience or v...
