Tri-Spine Horseshoe Crab Aquaculture, Ranching and Stock Enhancement: Perspectives and Challenges

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
As a well-known example of “living fossil,” horseshoe crabs are ecologically significant macroinvertebrates in coastal and estuarine ecosystems. The tri-spine horseshoe crab, Tachypleus tridentatus, has been widely utilized for Tachypleus amebocyte ...

Peptides as a Therapeutic Alternative Against Leishmaniasis: A Scoping Review. [PDF]

Chem Biol Drug Des
This scoping review of 79 studies identified 231 antimicrobial peptides with anti‐Leishmania activity, including natural‐derived and synthetic peptides (inspired by natural sources or developed through rational design). Most were evaluated in vitro against promastigote and/or amastigote forms, with synthetic peptides showing a more promising effect ...

EMBRYO AND ORGAN CULTURES OF THE HORSESHOE CRAB, TACHYPLEUS TRIDENTATUS* [PDF]

Development, Growth & Differentiation, 1974
This paper deals with some preliminary technical experiments on cultures of the embryos and organs of Tachypleus tridentatus. In embryo culture, using the embryos at various stages of development, embryonic areas with hardly any yolk remaining in them were cultured in various media and by various methods (Series A); hemispheres of embryos containing ...

Nursery habitat of three species of juvenile Asian horseshoe crabs in Teritip Beach, East Kalimantan, Indonesia: Characterization and implication

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2021
Documenting juveniles’ presence is a crucial criterion for ensuring that a protected area can support robust populations of horseshoe crabs. Yet, there are no studies on the juvenile of Asian horseshoe crab in Indonesia.

Advances in the reconstruction of the spider tree of life: A roadmap for spider systematics and comparative studies

Cladistics, Volume 39, Issue 6, Page 479-532, December 2023., 2023
Abstract In the last decade and a half, advances in genetic sequencing technologies have revolutionized systematics, transforming the field from studying morphological characters or a few genetic markers, to genomic datasets in the phylogenomic era. A plethora of molecular phylogenetic studies on many taxonomic groups have come about, converging on, or

Assessment of recovery potential for the American horseshoe crab (Limulus polyphemus): An application of the IUCN green status process

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 33, Issue 11, Page 1175-1199, November 2023., 2023
Abstract According to an International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List assessment (RLA), the American horseshoe crab (Limulus polyphemus), an iconic coastal species, is at risk of extirpation in some regions within its range where small and vulnerable populations occur.

The relative importance of environmental heterogeneity and dispersal limitation on spatial patterns of phytoplankton communities varies across seasons

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 68, Issue 9, Page 1995-2007, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Environmental heterogeneity and dispersal limitation structure community assembly, but there is limited knowledge on how their effects vary on temporal scale. This study compiled a series of data, including phytoplankton, seawater depth and chemistry from 104 sites, to explore the spatial patterns and their drivers of phytoplankton communities

Two tropical seagrass species show differing indicators of resistance to a marine heatwave

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023
Here, we conducted a 10‐day marine heatwave (MHW) experiment (control +4°C) to determine the effects of such events on the two tropical seagrasses Halophila beccarii and Halophila ovalis. We found that both species were resistant to the MHW, however, there were differences between the species' responses.
