Structure and evolution of neuronal wiring receptors and ligands

Developmental Dynamics, Volume 252, Issue 1, Page 27-60, January 2023., 2023
Abstract One of the fundamental properties of a neuronal circuit is the map of its connections. The cellular and developmental processes that allow for the growth of axons and dendrites, selection of synaptic targets, and formation of functional synapses use neuronal surface receptors and their interactions with other surface receptors, secreted ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of the freshwater crab Neilupotamon xinganense (Decapoda: Brachyura: Potamoidea)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
In this study, we first obtained the complete mitochondrial genome of Neilupotamon xinganense (Decapoda: Brachyura: Potamoidea). The genome is 16,965 bp in length and typically consists of 37 genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs genes, two rRNAs ...

Marine crustaceans with hairy appendages: role of hydrodynamic boundary layers in sensing and feeding [PDF]

Phys. Rev. Fluids 4, 114102 (2019), 2018
Decapod crustaceans have appendages with an array of rigid hairs covered in chemo-receptors, used to sense and track food. Crustaceans directly influence the flow behavior by changing the speed of flow past the hairy surface, thereby manipulating the Reynolds number (Re). Hairs act either as a rake - diverting flow around the hair array, or as a sieve -

Investigation of ammonium polyphosphate dilution with ground eggshells and lignin through the study of natural fibre composite flammability

Fire and Materials, Volume 47, Issue 1, Page 28-50, January/February 2023., 2023
Summary The interactions of Calcium carbonate (e.g., eggshell powder) and Lignin with ammonium polyphosphate (APP) when used as fire retardants were investigated. Three mixing ratios ‐ 1:3, 1:1, and 3:1, were used with natural fibre reinforced composites containing a hemp mat and an epoxy matrix manufactured using a light resin transfer moulding (L‐RTM)

Impact of seasonal changes in zooplankton biodiversity in Ukkadam Lake, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India, and potential future implications of climate change

Journal of Basic and Applied Zoology, 2018
Background Zooplankton biodiversity serves as an ecological indicator of aquatic environment due to their rapid response according to environmental changes. At the present study, impact of seasonal changes on zooplankton biodiversity was conducted in the

Viral Haemorrhagic Septicemia Virus (VHSV) Isolated from Atlantic Herring, Clupea harengus, Causes Mortality in Bath Challenge on Juvenile Herring

Viruses, 2023
Viral hemorrhagic septicaemia virus (VHSV) has been demonstrated to cause high mortalities in a wide range of teleosts, farmed as well as wild. In Europe, VHSV of genotypes Ib, Id, II, and III have been detected in wild fish, including Atlantic herring ...

A Unique Crustacean-Based Chitin Platform to Reduce Self-Aggregation of Polysaccharide Nanofibers

Fibers, 2022
Every year, over 8 million tons of crustacean shells are discarded. However, there exists an opportunity for valorizing the chitin and calcium carbonate part of the composition of the shells.

LTR-retrotransposons in R. exoculata and other crustaceans [PDF]

, 2013
Transposable elements are major constituents of eukaryote genomes and have a great impact on genome structure and stability. They can contribute to the genetic diversity and evolution of organisms. Knowledge of their distribution among several genomes is

Effects of CO2-induced pH reduction on the exoskeleton structure and biophotonic properties of the shrimp Lysmata californica. [PDF]

, 2015
The anticipated effects of CO2-induced ocean acidification on marine calcifiers are generally negative, and include dissolution of calcified elements and reduced calcification rates.
