    Reduction of a nymphal instar in a dampwood termite: heterochronic shift in the caste differentiation pathways

    Generally in termites, alates differentiate through multiple nymphal instars which gradually develop wing buds. However, in a dampwood termite, Hodotermopsis sjostedti, alates molt directly from a single nymphal ...

    Dynamics of free amino acids in the hemolymph of Pacific whiteleg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei exposed to different types of stress

    We analyzed the dynamics of amino acids, ammonia-N, and carbohydrates in hemolymph when Pacific whiteleg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei was subjected to air-exposure and low-salinity stresses. Glycine, l-arginine, a...

    Metabolism of amino acids during hyposmotic adaptation in the whiteleg shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei

    The penaeid prawn, Litopenaeus vannamei, was employed to investigate intracellular isosmotic regulation in situations where invertebrates encounter hyposmosis. Hemolymph osmolality was first analyzed to confirm o...

    Changes in crustacean hyperglycemic hormones in Pacific whiteleg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei subjected to air-exposure and low-salinity stresses

    Changes in crustacean hyperglycemic hormone (CHH)-family peptides in response to stress were investigated in Litopenaeus vannamei. Stress treatments consisted of air exposure and low salinity. High-performance li...
