Testing for Resistance of Pelagic Marine Copepods to a Toxic Dinoflagellate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
With few exceptions, the evolutionary consequences of harmful algae to grazers in aquatic systems remain unexplored. To examine both the ecological and evolutionary consequences of harmful algae on marine zooplankton, we used a two-fold approach.

Comparison of the Functional and Numerical Responses of Resistant versus Non-resistant Populations of the Copepod Acartia Hudsonica Fed the Toxic Dinoflagellate Alexandrium Tamarense [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The functional and numerical responses of grazers are key pieces of information in predicting and modeling predator–prey interactions. It has been demonstrated that exposure to toxic algae can lead to evolved resistance in grazer populations.

Fear of grazing rivals the toxin‐inducing effects of nutrients in two marine harmful algae – a meta‐analysis

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT One of the major subfields of chemical ecology is the study of toxins and how they mediate interactions between organisms. Toxins produced by harmful algae (phycotoxins) impact a wide variety of organisms connected to the marine food web. Significant research efforts have thus aimed to identify the ecological and evolutionary drivers behind ...

PRESENT STATE OF THE SPRING PLANKTON COMMUNITY IN THE NORTHERN OKHOTSK SEA (1997–2017)

open access: yesИзвестия ТИНРО, 2018
Two periods are clearly distinguished within the last two decades (1997–2017) by several quantitative parameters of the plankton community in the northern shelf zone of the Okhotsk Sea: the period of high productivity in the 1997–2005 with the biomass of

Sex Reversal in Copepods [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1948
BETWEEN February and June 1947, 20·5 per cent of the males, 3·7 per cent of the females and 0·3 per cent of the copepodids of Pseudocalanus elongatus Boeck, collected from six stations between Flamborough Head and the Dogger Bank, were found to be parasitized by Blastodinium contortum hyalinum Chatton. Almost all the observed parasites were found to be

Performance of a glider‐mounted multifrequency echosounder for measuring the vertical distribution and abundance of large pelagic copepods

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract The difficulty of sampling zooplankton communities in situ has driven advancements in autonomous, remote sensing technology. The goal of this paper was to perform a gear comparison study testing the performance of one such piece of technology—a glider‐mounted four‐frequency echosounder—against traditional shipboard methods of measuring ...

Red, green, blue color indices as proxy for Symbiodiniaceae cell density and chlorophyll content during coral bleaching

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Coral bleaching, the breakdown of the symbiosis between the coral host and endosymbiotic microalgae, is the main cause of widespread coral reef degradation. Current visual assessment methods for coral health, including color reference cards, are constrained by subjective human color perception and limited resolution.

First De Novo Transcriptome of the Copepod Rhincalanus gigas from Antarctic Waters

open access: yesBiology, 2020
Antarctic waters are the largest almost untapped diversified resource of our planet. Molecular resources for Antarctic organisms are very limited and mostly represented by sequences used for species genotyping.

Five new coexisting species of copepod crustaceans of the genus Spaniomolgus (Poecilostomatoida: Rhynchomolgidae), symbionts of the stony coral Stylophorapistillata (Scleractinia) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Spaniomolgus is a symbiotic genus of copepods of the poecilostomatoid family Rhynchomolgidae and is known to be associated with shallow-water reef-building hermatypic corals.

Proteomic Profiling of Primary Hippocampal Neurons Reveals Noncanonical GFAP Expression and Metabolic Adaptations in Glia‐Free Culture

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite their widespread use as a research model, a comprehensive, quantitative proteomic profile of the cultured hippocampal neurons has remained unexplored. Here, we provide the first global proteomic characterization of primary murine hippocampal neurons cultured for 14 days under near‐physiological glucose conditions (2.5 mM).
