Suppression of a Novel Vitellogenesis-Inhibiting Hormone Significantly Increases Ovarian Vitellogenesis in the Black Tiger Shrimp, Penaeus monodon

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
In this study, a novel Crustacean Hyperglycemic Hormone-type II gene (CHH-type II) was identified and biologically characterized in a shrimp, Penaeus monodon. Based on its structure and function, this gene was named P.

Bioinspired Bromination Enables Extensible, Strain‐Stiffening Resilin Peptide Scaffolds with Tunable Degradation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bioinspired bromination of a resilin‐derived peptide enables the fabrication of electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds that uniquely combine strain‐stiffening elasticity, proteolytic stability, and antioxidant functionality. These brominated peptide–gelatin hybrids mimic the extensibility of natural elastomers, demonstrating tunable mechanical resilience ...

SOMATIC GROWTH OF THE MUDFLAT FIDDLER CRAB Uca rapax (Smith, 1870) (Brachyura: Ocypodidae) FROM TWO SUBTROPICAL MANGROVES IN BRAZIL

open access: yesEcosistemas y Recursos Agropecuarios, 2014
The crabs were collected monthly, from April 2001 to March 2002 in the mangroves of Itamambuca and Ubatumirim in Ubatuba, São Paulo, Brazil, using the procedure of catch per unit effort (cpue) during 15 minutes at low tide periods by digging the burrows.

Sublethal Biochemical Effects of Polyethylene Microplastics and TBBPA in Experimentally Exposed Freshwater Shrimp Palaemonetes argentinus

open access: yesBiology, 2023
The biochemical effects of sublethal exposure to polyethylene microplastics (PEM) of 40–48 µm particle size and the flame retardant tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA), a plastic additive, on the freshwater shrimp Palaemonetes argentinus were assessed.

The lack of genetic variation underlying thermal transcriptomic plasticity suggests limited adaptability of the Northern shrimp, Pandalus borealis

open access: yesFrontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
IntroductionGenetic variation underlies the populations’ potential to adapt to and persist in a changing environment, while phenotypic plasticity can play a key role in buffering the negative impacts of such change at the individual level.MethodsWe ...
