Understanding the effects of environmental temperature on marine fish larvae is crucial for optimizing feeding regimes and promoting optimal development and growth from a zootechnical perspective in aquaculture practices. The present study investigated the impact of different rearing temperatures on development, growth, and oxygen consumption rates of Totoaba macdonaldi larvae. An open-flow seawater recirculating system was us...

Cell suspension fluidics, such as flow cytometry (FCS) and fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), facilitates the identification and precise separation of individual cells based on phenotype. Since its introduction, flow cytometry has been used to analyze cell types and cellular processes in diverse non-vertebrate taxa, including cnidarians, molluscs, and arthropods. Ctenophores, which diverged very early from the metazoa...

In a physical model of a thin planktonic layer, the estuarine copepod Acartia tonsa strongly avoided weakly stratified layers of dissolved chemical compounds from the harmful dinoflagellate Karenia brevis . Chemical‐induced changes in swimming kinematics allowed copepods to effectively avoid the layer and surrounding volume, highlighting the relevance of harmful alga‐grazer interactions at a distance that involve dissolved che...
