Eriocheir sinensis, (Crustacea: Decapoda, Brachyura, Varunidae): fish egg consumption
Dispersal of Eriocheir sinensis from its native habitat is a worldwide concern. As one of the most invasive species known, this crab causes significant disruption to foreign ecosystems. In particular, populations in the United Kingdom (UK) are increasing in number and E. sinensis has been reported from many river catchments (www.mittencrabs.org.uk). The ecological implications of this invasion ...
متن کاملon translation of politeness strategies in dialogues involving female characters in translations and retranslations of novels translated before and after the islamic revolution of iran and their effects on the image of women: a polysystem theory approach

Effects of bilateral eyestalk ablation on gonadal maturity, moulting and biochemical changes in the hemolymph of female Potamonpersicum crabs (Decapoda, Brachyura, Potamidae)
Adult female crabs (Potamonpersicum; n=65) were collected from the Jajrood River in the east of Tehran, Iran. Both eyestalks were removed in crabs that weighed 27.6 ± 2.1 g. Changes in the levels of glucose and protein titers in the hemolymph, the number of hemocytes, gonadal and hepatic indices, body weight and carapace length were determined. The level of glucose in the hemolymph was signific...
متن کاملFemale freshwater crayfish adjust egg and clutch size in relation to multiple male traits.
Females may invest more in reproduction if they acquire mates of high phenotypic quality, because offspring sired by preferred partners may be fitter than offspring sired by non-preferred ones. In this study, we tested the differential maternal allocation hypothesis in the freshwater crayfish, Austropotamobius italicus, by means of a pairing experiment aimed at evaluating the effects of specifi...
متن کاملEgg size and the adaptive capacity of early life history traits in Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha)
Offspring traits are greatly influenced by maternal effects, and these maternal effects may provide an important pathway through which populations can adapt to changing thermal environments. We investigated the effect of egg size on the among- and within-population variation in early life history traits among introduced Great Lakes Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) populations under var...
