Breeding pelagic copepods [PDF]
Hydrobiological Bulletin, 1980 A cultivation technique has been developed to breed marine pelagic copepods for experimental purposes. Heterotrophic dinoflagellates occurring in the copepod cultures prevent the cultures from fouling due to sedimentation of autotrophic algae, administered daily from continuous cultures.

Nanomaterials' Multigenerational Effects by Single and Joint Exposure in Non‐mammalian Models
Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Nanotoxicology has mainly focused on single‐generation studies, leaving multigenerational toxicity underexplored. Having animal welfare recently gained importance, we aimed to provide the state‐of‐the‐art of knowledge about multigenerational effects in non‐mammalian models in the case of nanomaterials (NM) single and joint exposure to other ...

Chromosome-Wide Impacts on the Expression of Incompatibilities in Hybrids of Tigriopus californicus
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016 Chromosome rearrangements such as inversions have been recognized previously as contributing to reproductive isolation by maintaining alleles together that jointly contribute to deleterious genetic interactions and postzygotic reproductive isolation.

Locating a Mate in 3D: the Case of Temora Longicornis [PDF]
, 1998 Using laser optics to illuminate high–resolution video–recordings, we revealed behavioural mechanisms through which males of the calanoid copepod species Temora longicornis locate females. Males of T.

Dietary resilience of coral reef fishes to habitat degradation
Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.Metabarcoding of gut contents shows that two common benthic‐feeding reef fishes with different feeding stratgies—a butterflyfish (Chaetodon capistratus) and a hamlet (Hypoplectrus puella)—shift diets on degraded reefs. These shifts mirror contrasting patterns in body condition: butterflyfish showed strong individual variation, whereas condition was ...

Copepod Foraging on the Basis of Food Nutritional Quality: Can Copepods Really Choose?
PLoS ONE, 2013 Copepods have been considered capable of selective feeding based on several factors (i.e., prey size, toxicity, and motility). However, their selective feeding behaviour as a function of food quality remains poorly understood, despite the potential ...

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.This original research piece demonstrates, through empirical and theoretical modelling approaches, that the epibionts of striped dolphins indicate dolphin abundance shifts caused by epidemics of dolphin morbillivirus (DMV). In addition, we provide the first SIR model to investigate the epidemiology of DMV in western Mediterranean striped dolphins ...

A century of theories of balancing selection
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Traits that affect organismal fitness are often highly genetically variable. This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that nature – after all – ‘selects’ the best genotypes at the expense of those that fall short.
