Effects of salinity and temperature on the recruitment of Aurelia coerulea planulae [PDF]
ABSTRACTThe recruitment of scyphomedusae planulae to the benthic polyp stage is important for population size and may be affected under projected climate change scenarios. In a laboratory study, we determined the combined effects of elevated temperature and reduced salinity on the behaviour, survival and settlement of Aurelia coerulea planulae.

Combined effects of ocean acidification and temperature on planula larvae of the moon jellyfish Aurelia coerulea [PDF]
Rapidly rising levels of atmospheric CO2 have caused two environmental stressors, ocean acidification and seawater temperature increases, which represent major abiotic threats to marine organisms. Here, we investigated for the first time the combined effects of ocean acidification and seawater temperature increases on the behavior, survival, and ...

Composition and Potential Functions of Bacterial Communities Associated With Aurelia Polyps
Jellyfish and their associated microbes form an ecological unit called the holobiont. Changes in the composition of dominant microbial assemblages may influence the environmental resilience and function of the holobionts.

The importance of molecular characters when morphological variability hinders diagnosability: systematics of the moon jellyfish genus Aurelia (Cnidaria: Scyphozoa) [PDF]
Cryptic species have been detected across Metazoa, and while no apparent morphological features distinguish them, it should not impede taxonomists from formal descriptions.

As temperature is regarded as a significant environmental factor affecting the intensity and frequency of jellyfish blooms, the projection of jellyfish peak biomass variation under global warming becomes essential for disaster prevention and mitigation ...

Streptomyces spp. are well-known producers of secondary metabolites with diverse biological activities. We screened the substances that regulate polyp-to-jellyfish transition, called strobilation, of the moon jellyfish (Aurelia coerulea) from the ...

Microbiota regulates life-cycle transition and nematocyte dynamics in jellyfish [PDF]
Summary: Jellyfish represent one of the most basal animal groups with complex life cycles. The polyp-to-medusa transition, termed strobilation, is the pivotal process that determines the switch in swimming behavior and jellyfish blooms.

Aurelia coerulea, a type of scyphozoan jellyfish, has massively appeared in the coastal waters of China in recent years and caused great damage, but the asexual reproduction of A. coerulea polyp predicted by local temperature could not correspond well to

Effects of copper and reduced salinity on the early life stages of the moon jellyfish Aurelia coerulea [PDF]
Abstract The moon jellyfish Aurelia coerulea is a nuisance species around the world, and is considered highly tolerant of a wide range of environmental conditions. The recruitment success during the early life stages of scyphomedusae can have a major effect on the abundance of the adult medusa population and can contribute to jellyfish blooms.
