Larval rearing and spat production of Marcia opima (Gmelin) [PDF]

Aquaculture, 2002
The ‘baby clam’ Marcia opima (Gmelin) was spawned on seven occasions in the shellfish hatchery at the Tuticorin Research Centre, India. The fertilized eggs measured 47.8 μm in diameter and the straight hinged larvae attained at 20 h were 87 μm in length and 71 μm in height. Settlement occurred on day 9 at 273 μm.

The FMRFamide-like peptide FLP-11 regulates the production and secretion of the TGF-β-like protein DAF-7 during Caenorhabditis elegans larval development [PDF]

Scientific Reports
FMRFamide-like peptides (FLPs) are widely conserved in nematodes. Here, we conducted a molecular genetic study to confirm that the flp-11 gene regulates larval development in the free-living soil nematode model species Caenorhabditis elegans.

Settlement and Growth of Mytilus galloprovincialis Pediveliger Larvae in Response to Biofilm-Based Microalgae and Chemical Neuroactive Compounds [PDF]

Biology
The sustainability of mollusc aquaculture relies, in part, on overcoming the challenges of spat production in captivity, particularly during the metamorphosis and settlement stages.

Methodologies for Patellid Limpets’ Aquaculture: From Broodstock Management to Juveniles

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The production of cultured limpets is a recent research field contributing to aquaculture diversification, focusing on low trophic species while reducing the carbon footprint.

Life history and secondary production of Anomalocosmoecus illiesi Marlier, 1962 (Trichoptera, Limnephilidae) in a small stream in the northern Ecuadorian Paramo [PDF]

ZooKeys, 2022
Life history of benthic faunas of tropical high-altitude cold environments are poorly studied. Here, monthly larval and adult data are presented for Anomalocosmoecus illiesi at Saltana Stream in Ecuador.

Improvement of Tenebrio molitor Larvae Farming and Fatty Acid Composition by Supplementation with Vegetable Waste

Biology and Life Sciences Forum, 2023
T. molitor larvae were fed with wheat bran (W) and supplemented (1:1) with cucumber (C + W) or tomato (T + W) agricultural wastes, from conventional or ecological farming, for 6 weeks.

Improving efficiency of methods for hatchery production of the limpet Patella candei (Patellogastropoda: Patellidae)

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, 2023
Patella candei d'Orbigny, 1840 is a valuable resource from the European Macaronesia. Limpet aquaculture is a recent research field that could contribute to reducing anthropogenic impact and developing appropriate restocking technologies.

Hysteresis in the production of force by larval Dipteran muscle [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2010
SUMMARYWe describe neuromuscular hysteresis – the dependence of muscle force on recent motoneuron activity – in the body wall muscles of larval Sarcophaga bullata and Drosophila melanogaster. In semi-intact preparations, isometric force produced by a train of nerve impulses at a constant rate was significantly less than that produced by the same train ...
