Abstract Background Cysts of Artemia can remain in a dormant state for long periods with a
very low metabolic rate, and only resume their development with the approach of favorable …

AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) plays a central role in maintaining the energy balance
of organisms under physiological and environmental stresses. Here two AMPK alpha …

Encysted embryos (cysts) of the brine shrimp Artemia undergo diapause, a state of profound
dormancy and enhanced stress tolerance. Upon exposure to the appropriate physical …

Background Artemia eggs tend to develop ovoviviparously to yield nauplius larvae in good
rearing conditions; while under adverse situations, they tend to develop oviparously and …

Females of the crustacean Artemia franciscana produce either motile nauplii or gastrula
stage embryos enclosed in a shell impermeable to nonvolatile compounds and known as …

Environmental cues for embryonic diapause termination (EDT) were investigated in the
laboratory‐produced encysted dormant embryos of the brine shrimp, Artemia franciscana …

One of the environmental cues for Artemia embryonic diapause termination (EDT), the
nature of which is barely understood, is the absence of light, although light–dark cycles …

Sequencing of cloned cDNAs to produce expressed sequence tag (EST) libraries is an
efficient method for gene identification and analysis of transcription status within organisms …

The brine shrimp Artemia is a well known animal extremophile adapted to survive in very
harsh hypersaline environments. We compared the small stress proteins artemin and p26 …
