Specific thermoreceptors or putative multimodal thermoreceptors are not known in
Crustacea. However, behavioural studies on thermal avoidance and preference and on the …

The giant freshwater prawn, Macrobarchium rosenbergii (De Man, 1879), is the largest
palaemonid prawn, with a maximum body length of 32 cm. M. rosenbergii originated in the …

Water temperature is an important abiotic driver of aquatic ecosystems. It influences many
aspects of an organism's existence including its growth, feeding and metabolic rates; …

Two independent experiments were performed to determine the effects of salinity on survival
and growth of juvenile Macrobrachium rosenbergii, first one was to determine the median …

The anthropogenic and climate-driven rise in water temperature is expected to have an
effect on the physiological functions of ectothermic species. In the present study, hybrid …

Critical thermal maxima (CTMax), critical thermal minima (CTMin), lethal temperature
maxima (LTMax) and lethal temperature minima (LTMin) were determined in Indian Major …

To compare the species-specific variation in thermal tolerance and metabolic activity, critical
thermal maximum (CTMax), critical thermal minimum (CTMin), lethal thermal maximum …

A 30 day feeding trial was conducted using a freshwater fish, Labeo rohita (rohu), to
determine their thermal tolerance, oxygen consumption and optimum temperature for …

Water temperature is a key variable affecting aquatic organisms. Understanding their
response to elevated water temperatures is important for estimating upper thermal limits …

Thermal sensitivity of the cardiorespiratory oxygen supply capacity has been proposed as
the cardinal link underlying the upper boundary of the temperature niche in aquatic …
