A localized PCR inhibitor in a porcelain crab suggests a protective role [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2014
A number of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) inhibitors have been identified from biological and environmental samples. By and large, such substances are treated as random nuisances and contaminants with alternate functions; their inhibitory effects on ...

A review of conspecific attraction for habitat selection across taxa

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 10, Issue 23, Page 12690-12699, December 2020., 2020
Many species across taxa select habitat based on conspecific presence, known as conspecific attraction. Although the number of studies examining conspecific attraction has grown in recent years, a comprehensive review has not yet been undertaken. Here, we conducted a review of the literature and found that conspecific attraction is widespread with ...

Masters of communication: The brain of the banded cleaner shrimp Stenopus hispidus (Olivier, 1811) with an emphasis on sensory processing areas

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 528, Issue 9, Page 1561-1587, June 15, 2020., 2020
Cleaner shrimps feature a broad communicative repertoire which is considered to depend on superb motor skills and the underlying mechanosensory circuits in combination with sensory organs such as the two pairs of antennules and antennae, which are used both for attracting client fish and for intraspecific communication.

Heterochely and cheliped dimorphism in the porcellanid crab Petrolisthes japonicus (De Haan, 1849) (Decapoda: Porcellanidae)

open access: yesNauplius, 2022
Cheliped dimorphism is common in decapod crustaceans, and many decapods have a pair of different-sized chelipeds, i.e., one side being larger (major) than the other (minor), a phenomenon known as heterochely.

A Feeding‐Ecology‐Based Approach to Evaluating Nursery Potential of Estuaries for Black Rockfish

open access: yesMarine and Coastal Fisheries, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 124-141, April 2020., 2020
Abstract Previous work suggests that Oregon estuaries function as nursery habitat and may play an important role in settlement of Black Rockfish Sebastes melanops. No research, however, has been conducted on juvenile Black Rockfish feeding ecology in estuarine habitats, which is necessary to evaluate habitat use and quality.

Effects of CO2-induced pH reduction on the exoskeleton structure and biophotonic properties of the shrimp Lysmata californica. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The anticipated effects of CO2-induced ocean acidification on marine calcifiers are generally negative, and include dissolution of calcified elements and reduced calcification rates.
