Reproductive regulators in decapod crustaceans: an overview
GPC Nagaraju - Journal of Experimental Biology, 2011 - journals.biologists.com
Control of reproductive development in crustaceans requires neuropeptides, ecdysone and
methyl farnesoate (MF). A major source of neuropeptides is the X-organ–sinus gland (XO …

Single dietary amino acids control resting egg production and affect population growth of a key freshwater herbivore
The enormous success of the genus Daphnia in freshwater ecosystems is at least partially
due to their cyclical parthenogenetic life cycle, in which asexual and sexual reproduction …

Interactions between P-limitation and different C conditions on the fatty acid composition of an extremophile microalga
E Spijkerman, A Wacker - Extremophiles, 2011 - Springer
The extremophilic microalga Chlamydomonas acidophila inhabits very acidic waters (pH 2–
3.5), where its growth is often limited by phosphorus (P) or colimited by P and inorganic …

Growth Rate Hypothesis does not apply across colimiting conditions: cholesterol limitation affects phosphorus homoeostasis of an aquatic herbivore
M Lukas, E Sperfeld, A Wacker - Functional Ecology, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Herbivores show stronger control of element homoeostasis than primary producers, which
can lead to constraints in carbon and nutrient transfer efficiencies from plants to animals …

The potential of methanotrophic bacteria to compensate for food quantity or food quality limitations in Daphnia
The endpoint of anaerobic degradation of organic compounds in aquatic ecosystems is
methane. This methane-carbon is not necessarily lost for ecosystem processes as it can be …
