Complete mitochondrial genome of the calanoid copepod Eurytemora affinis (Calanoida, Temoridae) [PDF]
The complete mitochondrial genome was sequenced from the calanoid copepod Eurytemora affinis. The sequenced total genome size was 18,553 bp. The mitochondrial genome of E. affinis has 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), two rRNAs, and 22 tRNAs.

Adaptation potential of the copepod Eurytemora affinis to a future warmer Baltic Sea [PDF]
To predict effects of global change on zooplankton populations, it is important to understand how present species adapt to temperature and how they respond to stressors interacting with temperature. Here, we ask if the calanoid copepod Eurytemora affinis

Genome architecture underlying salinity adaptation in the invasive copepod Eurytemora affinis species complex: A review [PDF]
Summary: With climate change, habitat salinity is shifting rapidly throughout the globe. In addition, many destructive freshwater invaders are recent immigrants from saline habitats. Recently, populations of the copepod Eurytemora affinis species complex

Reproductive trade-offs of the estuarine copepod Eurytemora affinis under different thermal and haline regimes [PDF]
Copepod females invest a quantity of resources in their reproduction. Depending on several biotic and abiotic factors and their evolutionary history a trade-off can be commonly observed between producing a large number of smaller offspring or a small ...

Noncanonical GA and GG 5′ Intron Donor Splice Sites Are Common in the Copepod Eurytemora affinis [PDF]
The noncanonical 5′ intron donor splice sites GA and GG are exceedingly rare in described eukaryotic genomes; however, they are present in ∼12% of introns in the genome of the copepod Eurytemora affinis.

Dataset on seston and zooplankton fatty-acid compositions, zooplankton and phytoplankton biomass, and environmental conditions of coastal and offshore waters of the northern Baltic Sea [PDF]
We analyzed the taxonomic and fatty-acid (FA) compositions of phytoplankton and zooplankton, and the environmental conditions at three coastal and offshore stations of the northern Baltic Sea.

Negligible effects of ocean acidification on Eurytemora affinis (Copepoda) offspring production [PDF]
Ocean acidification is caused by increasing amounts of carbon dioxide dissolving in the oceans leading to lower seawater pH. We studied the effects of lowered pH on the calanoid copepod Eurytemora affinis during a mesocosm experiment conducted in a ...

How Copepods Can Eat Toxins Without Getting Sick: Gut Bacteria Help Zooplankton to Feed in Cyanobacteria Blooms [PDF]
Toxin-producing cyanobacteria can be harmful to aquatic biota, although some grazers utilize them with often beneficial effects on their growth and reproduction. It is commonly assumed that gut microbiota facilitates host adaptation to the diet; however,

Trade-offs between predation risk and growth benefits in the copepod Eurytemora affinis with contrasting pigmentation. [PDF]
Intraspecific variation in body pigmentation is an ecologically and evolutionary important trait; however, the pigmentation related trade-offs in marine zooplankton are poorly understood.
