Larval Transport
In general, the larval stage of pelagic surface fish lasts a mere few weeks, and quickly undergo metamorphosis into juveniles, where swimming ability... -
Larval Rearing
Since the first hatched larvae (preleptocephali) of freshwater eel were obtained in the 1970s (Yamamoto and Yamauchi 1974), rearing techniques for... -
Delayed First Feeding Chronically Impairs Larval Fish Growth Performance, Hepatic Lipid Metabolism, and Visceral Lipid Deposition at the Mouth-Opening Stage
During the mouth-opening stage, fish larvae are susceptible to delayed first feeding (DFF). In this study, we explored the effects of DFF for two...

Brain Imaging and Registration in Larval Zebrafish
Registration of larval zebrafish brain scans to a common reference brain enables comparison of transgene and gene expression patterns, neuroanatomy,... -
Visualization and Quantification of Drosophila Larval Ovaries
The morphogenesis of the ovarian germline stem cell (GSC) niche during larval stages in Drosophila provides the initial cellular and molecular basis... -
Structure and function of the larval teleost fish gill
The fish gill is a multifunctional organ that is important in multiple physiological processes such as gas transfer, ionoregulation, and...

Larval digestive system ontogeny and early weaning in neon tetra Paracheirodon innesi
The intensive culture of characid teleosts for ornamental trade is highly dependent on live feed organisms, particularly Artemia nauplii, to provide...

Effects of invasive bigheaded carp and environmental factors on larval fish growth
Silver carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix and bighead carp H. nobilis (collectively bigheaded carp) are abundant planktivorous invasive species in...

Cost of defensive spraying by larval Osmylus hyalinatus (Neuroptera: Osmylidae) for post-larval development
The chemical defense of insects is effective for avoiding predation, but may carry a cost in terms of life history traits. If chemical defenses...

Thermal tolerance of larval Antarctic cryonotothenioid fishes
Cryonotothenioids constitute a subgroup of notothenioid fishes endemic to the Southern Ocean that are specialized to exist in a narrow range of...

Holographic Optogenetic Activation of Neurons Eliciting Locomotion in Head-Embedded Larval Zebrafish
Understanding how motor circuits are organized and recruited in order to perform complex behavior is an essential question of neuroscience. Here we... -
Transcriptome analysis of the Japanese eel (Anguilla japonica) during larval metamorphosis
BackgroundAnguillid eels spend their larval period as leptocephalus larvae that have a unique and specialized body form with leaf-like and...

Larval precompetency and settlement behaviour in 25 Indo-Pacific coral species
Knowledge of coral larval precompetency periods and maximum competency windows is fundamental to understanding coral population dynamics, informing...

Intestinal microbial community well explain larval growth than feed types
AbstractBlack soldier fly larvae (BSFL) are considered a sustainable ingredient in livestock feed. However, addressing issues related to feed...

Surviving submergence in larval stage: a strategy of Lepidiota mansueta Burmeister (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) living on flood plains of Majuli river island
Lepidiota mansueta Burmeister (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) is a major pest of field crops at Majuli river island, Assam, India. Sampling carried out...

Larval performance of two amphidromous atyid shrimp species in the genus Atyopsis under different temperatures and salinity conditions
Amphidromous atyid shrimps in the genus Atyopsis consist of two species, namely, A. moluccensis and A. spinipes . The geographical distribution of A....

Carryover effects of embryonic predation risk on larval growth, behaviour, morphology, and metamorphic traits of Euphlyctis cyanophlyctis
AbstractEarly life experiences can have latent effects, which could manifest at a later stage of life history. Though the carryover effects of...

Embryonic and larval development of a highly threatened killifish: ecological and conservation implications
Anthropogenic habitat degradation and alien invasive species have led to the rapid decline of freshwater fish biodiversity globally. The knowledge of...

Towards a functional understanding of the cyclorrhaphan larval head (Diptera, Cyclorrhapha)
The larval stage is thought to play a significant role in radiations of Diptera (Insecta), but for the Cyclorrhapha (Diptera), a well-supported and...

Larval secretions of parasitoid wasps are new effectors that impair host immune defences
Parasitoid wasps belong to a remarkably successful group of biological control agents. To ensure effective parasitism, parasitoid wasps have evolved...
