The transition of cetaceans from a terrestrial to an aquatic environment involved a crucial sensory adaptation to environments with limited visibility. Vibrissae, important mechanoreceptors, undergo an ontogenetic transformation in odontocetes. This research describes the histomorphology of vibrissae and crypts at different developmental stages ...

Transcriptomics Unveil Dsx1 as a Critical Regulator in Sexual Dimorphism of Crustaceans
Sexually dimorphic traits are involved in reproductive competition and are shaped by sex‐biased gene expression. This study identifies Dsx1 as a key male‐biased gene in Morinoia aosen and demonstrates through RNA interference that its disruption feminizes male‐specific T3 leg structures.

Studies on the histology of the pearl-sac, VI. The effect of the size of the mantle piece and the nuclear size on the rate of pearl-sac formation. [PDF]
1) 核及びピース(外とう膜片)の大小が真珠袋形成にどれだけ影響するかを組織学的観察を行い確かめた。 2) 大きい核を使って核入れ手術を行った場合は小さい核を使った場合より真珠袋形成に要する期間は少し長い。ピースの大きい場合は小さい場合よりわずかに真珠袋形成期間は短い傾向があるが前者の場合のようにはっきりしない。 3) 核及びピースの大きさによる真珠袋形成速度の差よりも水温差による形成速度の差の方が大きい。The effect of the size of the mantle piece and ...

Rise of the south: How Arab‐led maritime trade transformed China, 671–1371 CE
Abstract China's center of socioeconomic activities was in the North prior to the Tang dynasty but is in the South today. We demonstrate that Arab and Persian Muslim traders triggered that transition when they came to China in the late seventh century, by lifting maritime trade along the South Coast and re‐creating the South.
