Inhibitory Role of the Mud Crab Short Neuropeptide F in Vitellogenesis and Oocyte Maturation via Autocrine/Paracrine Signaling

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2018
Neuropeptides, in addition to their classical role in the nervous system, act on intraovarian factors to regulate reproductive functions in vertebrates. However, this function of neuropeptides has not been characterized in crustaceans. Short neuropeptide

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

Using Financial and Sustainability Ratios to Map Sectors. An Approach With Compositional Data

Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The article aims to visualize in a single graph Spanish fish and meat processing companies with respect to solvency, energy, waste and water intensity and gender employment gap. These financial, environmental, and social indicators are ratios, which require specific statistical analysis methods.

Grooming behaviors and fouling of the spider crab Libinia dubia (Decapoda: Epialtidae)

Nauplius
Body fouling has been reduced by grooming behaviors. In decapods, grooming has been focused on gills, sensory structures, and jointed appendages. In this study, grooming behaviors of the spider crab, Libinia dubia H.

Single‐cell sequencing reveals potential novel insights into appendage‐patterning and joint‐development in a spider

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Jointed appendages represent one of the key innovations of arthropods, and thus understanding the development and evolution of these structures is important for the understanding of the evolutionary success of Arthropoda. In this paper, we analyze a cell cluster that was identified in a previous single‐cell sequencing (SCS ...

Environmental and local habitat variables as predictors of trophic interactions in subtidal rocky reefs along the SE Pacific coast

Ecography, EarlyView.
Temperature generally drives latitudinal patterns in the strength of trophic interactions, including consumption rates. However, local community and other environmental conditions might also affect consumption, disrupting latitudinal gradients, which results in complex large‐scale patterns.
