Hydrobiologia, 2019 To persist in extreme environments, some meiofaunal taxa have adopted outstanding resistance strategies. Recent years have seen increased enthusiasm for understanding extreme-resistance mechanisms evolved by tardigrades, nematodes and rotifers, such as ...

Bdelloid rotifers revisited [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004 Sexual reproduction is one of the most striking features of the biological world. The great majority of the animals and plants with which we are most familiar reproduce at least part of the time by means of sexual reproduction with meiosis, recombination, and fertilization.

Facing Adversity: Dormant Embryos in Rotifers
The Biological Bulletin, 2019 An in-depth look at the basic aspects of dormancy in cyclic parthenogenetic organisms is now possible thanks to research efforts conducted over the past two decades with rotifer dormant embryos.

Hidden defensive morphology in rotifers: benefits, costs, and fitness consequences
Scientific Reports, 2017 To cope with predation, many prey species have developed inducible defenses in terms of morphology, behavior, and life history. Rotifers were the first model organisms used to evaluate the ecology and evolution of inducible defenses in aquatic ecosystems.
