Extracellular acid–base balance in decapod crustaceans

influence extracellular acid–base status in brachyuran decapod crustaceans (Truchot, 1973; Truchot, 1981; Truchot, 1992; Mangum et al., 1976; Henry and Cameron, 1982; Wheatly, 1985). Although the underlying mechanisms and the physiological consequences remain unclear, the basis for the relationship between acid–base status and ion regulation can be attributed to the catalysed hydration of CO2 b...

Reproductive regulators in decapod crustaceans: an overview.

Control of reproductive development in crustaceans requires neuropeptides, ecdysone and methyl farnesoate (MF). A major source of neuropeptides is the X-organ-sinus gland (XO-SG) complex located in the eyestalk ganglia of crustaceans. The other regulatory factors (either peptides or neuromodulators) are produced in the brain and thoracic ganglia (TG). Two other regulatory non-peptide compounds,...
