RNA interference (RNAi) was used to assess the role of the molecular chaperone Hsp70 in
protecting nauplii of the crustacean, Artemia franciscana, against abiotic and biotic stressors …

In arthropods, mature females under certain conditions produce and release encysted
gastrula embryos that enter diapause, a state of obligate dormancy. The process is …

Coupled effects of photoperiod, temperature and salinity on diapause induction were …

Background Biomineralization, eg, in sea urchins or mollusks, includes the assembly of
mesoscopic superstructures from inorganic crystalline components and biopolymers. The …

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are highly conserved and present in organisms under normal
physiological conditions and function in protein folding, degradation and localization. HSPs …

Artemia diapause has been extensively studied in embryonic biology for a long time. It has
been demonstrated that hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) can increase the hatching rate in the …

Female Artemia franciscana release either swimming nauplii or cysts, the latter entering a
reversible state termed diapause, characterized by developmental arrest, reduced …

The brine shrimp, Artemia franciscana, produces diapausing embryos (cysts), in which
biological processes are arrested. Cysts are an excellent model for studying the regulation …

Females of the extremophile crustacean, Artemia franciscana, either release motile nauplii
via the ovoviviparous pathway of development or encysted embryos (cysts) via the …

Les petites protéines de choc thermique (sHsps: small heat shock proteins) sont présentes
en nombre variable dans tous les organismes. Le génome de Drosophila melanogaster …
