Effects of ocean acidification on young-of-the-year golden king crab (Lithodes aequispinus) survival and growth [PDF]
Ocean acidification, a reduction in the pH of the oceans caused by increasing CO2, can have negative physiological effects on marine species. In this study, we examined how CO2-driven acidification affected the growth and survival of juvenile golden king crab (Lithodes aequispinus), an important fishery species in Alaska.

LECITHOTROPHIC DEVELOPMENT OF THE GOLDEN KING CRAB LITHODES AEQUISPINUS (ANOMURA: LITHODIDAE) [PDF]
ABSTRACT Larvae of the golden king crab Lithodes aequispinus were reared in individual chambers in the laboratory from hatching to the first crab stage (C1). The experiment included 2 treatments: 1 group was fed live nauplii of Artemia daily, while the other group was unfed. A total of 4 molts were observed for all larvae from hatching to Cl.

SIZE OF MATURITY IN MALE GOLDEN KING CRAB, LITHODES AEQUISPINUS (ANOMURA: LITHODIDAE) [PDF]
Abstract Typically ≥90% of the eggs in clutches fertilized by hardshell Prince William Sound Lithodes aequispinus males ≥107 mm carapace length initiated division. Golden king crab males with only one chela and those with post-molt carapaces ≥11 days old were effective parents. Some test males had exclusive access to three ripe females. Their first and

Renegotiating property rights in the Florida golden crab fishery
The golden crab ('Chaceon fenneri') supports a small, economically healthy fishery in south Florida. Crabbers in the fishery have successfully protected themselves against larger outside fishing interests in the past, and management has been stable for over fifteen years.

Spatial variability in size at maturity of golden king crab (Lithodes aequispinus) and implications for fisheries management [PDF]
Many crab fisheries around the world are managed by size, sex and season, where males are given at least one opportunity to reproduce before being harvested. Golden king crab (Lithodes aequispinus) supports a commercial fishery in Southeast Alaska and legal size is based on growth and maturity information from other parts of their range.

PHOTOTAXIS AND GEOTAXIS OF LIGHT-ADAPTED ZOEAE OF THE GOLDEN KING CRAB LITHODES AEQUISPINUS (ANOMURA: LITHODIDAE) IN THE LABORATORY [PDF]
ABSTRACT Phototaxis and gcotaxis of light-adapted zoeae of the golden king crab Lithodes aequispinus Benedict were investigated in the laboratory. Stages I, II, and III zoeae were positively phototactic to white-light intensities of 1.5 x 1015 q s ' cm 2 and 3.1 x 10" q s ' cm 2. No significant response was observed in zoeae of any stage to 7.3 x 10" q

Carapace length, carapace width, and weight relationships are discussed for the golden crab, Chaceon fenneri, and the red crab, Chaceon quinquedens, from the eastern Gulf of Mexico. Males of both species were significantly larger than females in comparisons of means of all measured parameters.

A series of vancomycin‐antimicrobial peptide conjugates is synthesized and evaluated to identify the optimal combination. Vm‐MSI, selected from multiple candidates, exhibited potent activity against vancomycin‐resistant and Gram‐negative bacteria by disrupting membranes and inducing oxidative stress, thereby expanding vancomycin's antibacterial ...

Abstract Muscle architecture is a major determinant of muscle performance and, in mammalian lineages, has been correlated with both feeding ecology and locomotor behaviors. Over the past decade, contrast‐enhanced micro‐CT (DiceCT) has emerged as an alternative to traditional dissection‐based measurement.

Golden crab (Chaceon chilensis) specimens were analyzed after being caught with traps by artisanal fishermen off Robinson Crusoe Island, Juan Fernández Archipelago, Chile. Of the 13,027 individuals caught between 300 and 1,000 m depth, 97.9% were male (12,754) and the rest female (273). The carapace length (CL) of the sampled crabs was measured and, on
