Larval production drives temporal patterns of larval supply and recruitment of a coral reef damselfish

open access: yesMarine Ecology Progress Series, 1993
We examined the relative influence of planktonic processes and larval production on the larval supply and recruitment of the damselfish Pomacentrus arnboinensis during 2 summers at Llzard Island, northern Great Barrier Reef.

Starvation selection reduces and delays larval ecdysone production and signaling

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2023
ABSTRACT Previous studies have shown that selection for starvation resistance in Drosophila melanogaster results in delayed eclosion and increased adult fat stores. It is assumed that these traits are caused by the starvation selection pressure, but its mechanism is unknown.

Enhancing coral larval supply and seedling production using a special bundle collection system “coral larval cradle” for large‐scale coral restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, 2020
Larval recruitment is essential for sustaining coral communities and a fundamental tool in some interventions for reef restoration. To improve larval supply and post‐settlement survival in sexually assisted coral restoration efforts, an integrated in ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Alfalfa Snout Beetle, \u3ci\u3eOtiorhynchus Ligustici\u3c/i\u3e L. (Coleoptera: Curculionidae): Methods for Egg Collection and Larval Rearing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The alfalfa snout beetle, Otiorhynchus ligustici L., is the most serious pest of alfalfa in northern New York State. Recent research efforts focused on the biological control of this insect require the availability of all life stages.

Economic Evaluation of Different Culture Enclosures for Musca domestica Larval Production and Their Utilization for Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822) Fingerlings Diets

open access: yesNotulae Scientia Biologicae, 2018
The study was designed to investigate the rate of larval (maggot) production from different culture enclosures, as well as to compare the cost effectiveness and utilization of the maggot in the diet of African mud catfish, Clarias gariepinus.

The effect of a 24-hour photoperiod on the survival, growth and swim bladder inflation of pre-flexion yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) larvae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The effects of two different continuous photoperiod regimes on survival, growth and swim bladder inflation of pre-flexion yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) larvae were investigated. Each photoperiod regime was tested twice with a different larval cohort

Population connectivity and dynamics in early-life stages of Atlantic fish communities

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
IntroductionMany hypotheses have been suggested to explain recruitment variability in fish populations. These can generally be divided into three groups, either related to: larval food limitation, predation, or transport. Transport mechanisms are central

Larval habitat stability and productivity in two sites in Southern Ghana

open access: yesMalaria Journal, 2023
Abstract Background Mosquito larval source management (LSM) is a valuable additional tool for malaria vector control. Understanding the characteristics of mosquito larval habitats and its ecology in different land use types can give valuable insight for an effective larval control strategy.
