Levels of nutrient enrichment determine the emergence of zooplankton from resting egg banks
We studied the effects of varying levels of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and nitrogen and phosphorus mixture (NP) enrichment on the hatching of...

RNA-seq analysis to identify genes related to resting egg production of panarctic Daphnia pulex
BackgroundThe genus Daphnia switches its reproductive mode from subitaneous egg production to resting egg production in response to environmental...

Egg-Parasitic Fungi and Nematode Management
Sedentary phytonematodes are economically important pests that should sustainably be managed. Chemical nematicides have continued as the most routine... -
Impacts of exposure to mine tailings on zooplankton hatching from a resting egg bank
In the last five years, two colossal environmental disasters involving iron-enriched mine tailings have occurred in Brazil, affecting many aquatic...
-
The limits of stress-tolerance for zooplankton resting stages in freshwater ponds
In seasonal environments, many organisms evolve strategies such as diapause to survive stressful periods. Understanding the link between habitat...

Salinity sensitivity of Moina macrocopa post-diapause females hatched from resting eggs of different ages
Worldwide freshwater salinization may significantly alter ecosystem functioning and affect biodiversity. We studied the effect of salinity on...

Diversity and composition of cladoceran egg bank in sediments and macrophyte roots from the littoral zone of tropical lakes
There is still a fundamental gap in our knowledge regarding the dormant egg bank in the littoral zone, as much of the existing information stems from...

Adult Triops cancriformis (Pancrustacea: Notostraca) mediates the hatching rate of its resting eggs
The resting eggs of large branchiopods do not hatch all at once during a hydroperiod; instead, a fraction of the eggs are left dormant to cope with...

Cryptic diversity in a saline Mediterranean pond: the role of salinity and temperature in the emergence of zooplankton egg banks
Mediterranean endorheic wetlands are strongly affected by local meteorological events, so they undergo frequent unpredictable disturbances, such as...

Poultry and Egg Production: An Overview
There are 7.9 billion people in the world in 2021, and there will be a predicted 9.7 billion people on the planet in 2050. It will be a big challenge... -
The effects of egg incubation temperature and parental cross on the swimming activity of juvenile brown trout Salmo trutta
AbstractPersonality varies among individuals and is influenced by the environment. Here, we tested the hypothesis that egg incubation temperature had...

Female accessory glands of Adoxophyes honmai contain elicitor inducing tea leaves to arrest the egg-larval parasitoid, Ascogaster reticulata
Plants exhibit various defense mechanisms against pathogens and herbivores, which are induced by pathogen/herbivore-derived elicitors. Ascogaster...

Effects of the genotype, cage type and time period on the behaviour of laying hybrids at the same egg production level
Hybrids with different morphological and yield characteristics are used in the table egg production. There is no change in the cage systems according...
-
Dried aquatic macrophytes are floating egg banks and potential dispersal vectors of ostracods (Crustacea) from pleuston communities
In aquatic ecosystems, such as Neotropical floodplains, it is common to find dried aquatic macrophytes along the margins of various environments...

The queens of the stingless bees: from egg to adult
Queens play an essential role in the colonies of stingless bees. Typically, only one queen occurs in a colony at any time, and she dominates the egg...

Egg-laying by female Aedes aegypti shapes the bacterial communities of breeding sites
BackgroundAedes aegypti , the main arboviral mosquito vector, is attracted to human dwellings and makes use of human-generated breeding sites. Past...

Color vision evolution in egg-laying mammals: insights from visual photoreceptors and daily activities of Australian echidnas
Egg-laying mammals (monotremes) are considered “primitive” due to traits such as oviparity, cloaca, and incomplete homeothermy, all of which they...
-
Transcriptome comparative analysis of ovarian follicles reveals the key genes and signaling pathways implicated in hen egg production
BackgroundOvarian follicle development plays an important role in determination of poultry egg production. The follicles at the various developmental...

High activity and high functional connectivity are mutually exclusive in resting state zebrafish and human brains
BackgroundThe structural connectivity of neurons in the brain allows active neurons to impact the physiology of target neuron types with which they...

Hanging by a thread: unusual nocturnal resting behaviour in a jum** spider
BackgroundFor diurnal animals that heavily rely on vision, a nocturnal resting strategy that offers protection when vision is compromised, is...
