Phylogenetic implications of the Crustacean nauplius 总被引:4,自引:1,他引:3
Hans-U. Dahms 《Hydrobiologia》2000,417(1):91-99
The plesiomorphic mode of crustacean development is widely accepted to be via a larva called the nauplius. Extant taxa like the Cephalocarida, Branchiopoda, Ostracoda, Mystacocarida, Copepoda, Cirripedia, Ascothoracida, Facetotecta, Euphausiacea and Penaeidea hatch from an egg as a free-living nauplius. Other crustaceans show an embryonic phase of development suggestive of a naupliar organization. Several features of the nauplius larva have been proposed as diagnostic characters for the Crustacea: a median (nauplius) eye; at least three pairs of head appendages (antennules, antennae, mandibles); a posteriorly directed fold (the labrum) extending over the mouth and a cephalic (nauplius) shield. The relationship between trilobite protaspis with at least four appendages and the crustacean nauplius remains unclear, but reports of a copepod orthonauplius with four appendages are rejected. Swimming is suggested to represent the underived mode of locomotion for the crustacean nauplius, and that naupliar swimming directly results in naupliar feeding which also is underived. 相似文献

The presence of a characteristic crustacean larval type, the nauplius, in many crustacean taxa has often been considered one of the few uniting characters of the Crustacea. Within Malacostraca, the largest crustacean group, nauplii are only present in two taxa, Euphauciacea (krill) and Decapoda Dendrobranchiata. The presence of nauplii in these two taxa has traditionally been considered a retained primitive characteristic, but free-living nauplii have also been suggested to have reappeared a couple of times from direct developing ancestors during malacostracan evolution. Based on a re-study of Thysanoessa raschii (Euphausiacea) using preserved material collected in Greenland, we readdress this important controversy in crustacean evolution, and, in the process, redescribe the naupliar and metanaupliar development of T. raschii. In contrast to most previous studies of euphausiid development, we recognize three (not two) naupliar (= ortho-naupliar) stages (N1-N3) followed by a metanauplius (MN). While there are many morphological changes between nauplius 1 and 2 (e.g., appearance of long caudal setae), the changes between nauplius 2 and 3 are few but distinct. They involve the size of some caudal spines (largest in N3) and the setation of the antennal endopod (an extra seta in N3). A wider comparison between free-living nauplii of both Malacostraca and non-Malacostraca revealed similarities between nauplii in many taxa both at the general level (e.g., the gradual development and number of appendages) and at the more detailed level (e.g., unclear segmentation of naupliar appendages, caudal setation, presence of frontal filaments). We recognize these similarities as homologies and therefore suggest that free-living nauplii were part of the ancestral malacostracan type of development. The derived morphology (e.g., lack of feeding structures, no fully formed gut, high content of yolk) of both euphausiid and dendrobranchiate nauplii is evidently related to their non-feeding (lecithotrophic) status. 相似文献

This article gives an overview on some aspects of malacostracan development at the levels of gene expression, cell division, and shape of embryos and larvae. The various modes of development found in malacostracans are discussed in a phylogenetic and an evolutionary framework. It is suggested that the plesiomorphic condition within the Malacostraca is an embryonized egg‐nauplius which is characterised by a yolky egg, precocious development of the three anteriormost head segments, an antero‐ventrally folded caudal papilla, and a growth zone formed by rings of 19 ecto‐ and eight mesoteloblasts. Several alterations of this malacostracan ground pattern occurred concerning the arrangement and the number of teloblasts, the shape of the embryo and the timing of segmentation with respect to the naupliar segments. From their distribution within the phylogenetic tree and from their larval characteristics it is concluded that the free‐living nauplius larvae of euphausiids and dendrobranchiate decapods are secondarily evolved from ontogenies without a free‐living nauplius. Because the nauplius stage is lost in several malacostracan taxa, the concept of the nauplius as a phylotypic stage of crustaceans is refuted. In addition, the nauplius as an example of the recapitulation of ancestral characters is discussed. 相似文献

A morphological study was carried out on the fournaupliar stages of Sacculina carciniusing mainly scanning electron microscopy. Frontal horns were present and throughout development the typical nauplius limbs remained simple and gnathobases were lacking. Such features are characteristic of other lecithotrophic barnacle nauplii. The presence of a vestigial ventral thoracic process was evident on the stage III nauplius and was even more prominent on the stage IV nauplius. These observations confirm that the rhizocephalan nauplius is close to the thoracican nauplius form and lend strong support for the retention of the Rhizocephala within the Cirripedia. 相似文献

Summary The development of eggs and nauplii was studied over 19 days. At 1.5°C nauplii hatched after 5 days. Abdominal spines changed their appearance successively during nauplius development, but no moulting was observed in the course of naupliar development. Moulting occurred between the nauplius and the metanauplius stage 13 days after spawning. Swimming activity was weak in the nauplius, while it was vigorous in the metanauplius. A model is presented for the depth distribution of eggs and larval stages. It is also suggested that present collection techniques may inadequately sample eggs and nauplii based on experiments that show that eggs are extremely sensitive to sieving. 相似文献

The production and ingestion of faecal pellets by nauplii of marine calanoid copepods 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The downward transport of organic matter as zooplankton faecalmaterial is influenced by copepods which fragment, ingest andrecycle some of the pellet contents. Most of this activity hasbeen attributed to the later copepodite stages and the adults,but little is known about the role of nauplii. Stage-relateddefaecation rates during the naupliar development of two speciesof copepod, Calanus helgolandicus and Pseudocalanus elongatus,were quantified in a series of laboratory experiments. The productionof faecal material commenced soon after the appearance of theNIII in both species and increased throughout naupliar development.The causes of the increase were the formation of larger pelletsby later stages in Calanus and an increased rate of productionby Pseudocalanus. Calanus nauplii, when supplied with algalfood at concentrations that would support full naupliar development,ingested or broke up the pellets of the smaller Pseudocalanusspecies at rates of 1.15 pellets nauplius1 h1This consumption increased to 2.96 pellets nauplius1h1 when the concentration of algal food was reduced toa limiting level. Pseudocalanus was not able to consume thepellets of Calanus. Ingestion of Pseudocalanus faecal pelletsby Calanus could supply a nutritional benefit to a food-limitednauplius. 相似文献

The goal of this study was to quantify periods of activity andvelocities of late naupliar and early copepodid stages of planktoniccopepods occurring regularly on the southeastern continentalshelf of the USA. We obtained quantitative information on eightspecies, including adult females of Oithona plumifera. All studieswere conducted at food concentrations near or above satiationlevels. Activities ranged from 0.85% (adult females of O.plumifera)to 100% of time (nauplii and copepodids of various calanoidspecies). Motion velocities (excluding escape motion) coveredmore than one order of magnitude: from 0.39 mm s1 fornauplii of Temora stylifera to 5.24 mm s1 for naupliiof Oncaea mediterranea. Ranges of activities of species rangefrom occasional for early juveniles to adult females of O.plumiferato 100% for the same range of T.stylifera, the latter creatinga feeding current from N III onwards, the former not at all.Of notable interest is Centropages velificatus which moves intermittentlyas a late nauplius, continuously as an early copepodid and intermittentlyas an adult. All observed calanoid late nauplii and copepodidsmove in three dimensions, excluding copepodids of the shelfbreak/oceanicParacalanus aculeatus. The results indicate not only significantdifferences in motion behavior between cyclopoids and calanoids,but also between calanoid species. Yet, some calanoid speciesshow little ontogenetic changes at all. 相似文献

The six naupliar instars of the two alpine species Aconthodiaptornusdenticornis and Arctodiaptomus alpinus are described and illustrated.Their external morphology is compared with that of all presentlyknown diaptomid nauplii in an attempt to provide usehl taxonomiccharacteristics to identify larval diaptomids. The larval stagesof the two species are remarkably similar in size and overallappearance, and show an identical pattern of limb setation throughoutthe whole development. Diagnostic characters are mainly relatedto the differentiation of antennules and caudal armature. 相似文献

Female and naupliar Calanus were rarer in winter and springof 1992, an El Niño period, than in 1989. The ratio ofabundances, nauplius III (NIII) female-1 (a composite surrogatefor reproduction and survival), did not differ between yearsand was not consistently correlated with concurrently measuredchlorophyll (a measure of food). Survival from egg to NIII wasnegatively correlated with biomass of macrozooplankton (a measureof predators). Survival from NIV to NVI was less variable thanthat of younger states; it was poorer in winter of 1992 thanin winter of 1989, but did not differ in median magnitude betweenthe two springs, although it was least variable spatially inspring of 1992. Survival of these feeding stages was not correlatedwith chlorophyll. The relative ranty of nauplii was equivalentto a reduction of 30% in this source of food for larval fish. 相似文献

The nervous system of nauplii of the crustacean taxon Cirripedia was analysed in the species Balanus improvisus Darwin, 1854 using for the first time immunocytochemical staining against serotonin, RFamide and α-tubulin in combination with confocal laser scanning microscopy. This approach revealed a circumoesophageal neuropil ring with nerves extending to the first and second antennae and to the mandibles, all features typical for Crustacea. In addition, RFamidergic structures are present in the region of the thoraco-abdomen. A pair of posterior nerves and a pair of lateral nerves run in anterior-posterior direction and are connected by a thoracic nerve ring and a more posteriorly situated commissure. A median nerve is situated along the ventral side of the thoraco-abdomen. The innervation of frontolateral horns and the frontal filaments are α-tubulin-positive. Several pairs of large neurons in the protocerebrum, along the circumoesophageal connectives and in the mandibular ganglion stain only for serotonin. Due to the almost complete absence of comparable data on the neuroanatomy of early (naupliar) stages in other Crustacea, we include immunocytochemical data on the larvae of the branchiopod, Artemia franciscana Kellogg, 1906 in our analysis. We describe several characteristic neurons in the brains of the nauplius larvae of both species which are also found in decapod larvae and in adult brains of other crustaceans. Furthermore, our data reveal that the naupliar brain of cirripedes is more complex than the adult brain. It is concluded that this ontogenetic brain reduction is related to the sessile life style of adult Cirripedia. 相似文献

The muscle pattern of malacostracan and entomostracan crustacean nauplius larvae was compared using fluorescent phallotoxins. In the dendrobranchiate malacostracan Sicyonia ingentis, F-actin staining was first detected in limb setae at 12 h, likely within sensory nerves. Staining of F-actin was detected in the trunk at 15 h and grew into the naupliar limbs. Sarcomeres were detected at 19 h, identifying the structures as extrinsic limb muscles. The extrinsic limb muscles enlarged but retained their general pattern during the later nauplius stages. Longitudinal trunk muscles and circumferential visceral muscle (VM) developed in the post-naupliar region during nauplius instars 4 and 5, at the time when the gut also formed. In the anostracan branchiopod Artemia salina, the newly hatched nauplius contained an extensive system of extrinsic and intrinsic limb muscles. The gut was almost complete at hatching, along with its associated circumferential VM. Muscles similar in position and structure could be identified in nauplii from the two taxa, but different anatomical origins of extrinsic muscles were evident. Whether the naupliar limb muscles are homologous in malacostracans and branchiopods remains an open question. The strong musculature of the dendrobranchiate naupliar limbs correlates with the use of all three pairs of limbs for swimming. 相似文献

Inspection of two female colonies of the monopodial black coral Cirrhipathes cfr. anguina from the coral reef of the Marine Park of Bunaken (Indonesia) revealed the occurrence of crustacean developing eggs within
the mesenterial filaments of the polyps. Egg diameter, which in the smallest gametes was about 50–60 μm, increased in tandem
with embryo development, reaching the value of 170 μm, at the nauplius stage. The attribution to the crustacean taxon was
derived from morphological investigations carried out in light and electron microscopy (TEM, SEM) on the eggs and on the embryos
removed from them. The final stage of nauplius was characterised by three pairs of appendages: uniramouse antennulae, biramouse
antennae and manidibulae. In addition, naupliar eye and caudal setae were also evident. These nauplii were ascribed to the
larval stage of an unidentified species. Coral/copepod association could represent a reproductive strategy, put into action
by some marine copepods. Incubation within an appropriate host prevents predation by planktotrophic organisms, thus reducing
population depletion. 相似文献

From healthy and diseased penaeid shrimp from Asia and the Americas, 25 luminous and 2 non-luminous bacterial strains were isolated, and 14 were phenotypically identified as Vibrio harveyi; 9 isolates produced significant mortalities (45 to 80%) in Artemia franciscana nauplii at inoculation densities of 10(5) to 10(6) CFU ml(-1) compared to the controls (unchallenged nauplii). The maximum number of bacteria ingested (bioencapsulated) by the Artemia nauplii varied from less than 10 to 10(3) CFU nauplius(-1) and no significant relationship was observed between the density of bacteria inoculated, the amount of bacteria ingested, and naupliar mortality. Significant correlations were obtained between naupliar mortality and production of proteases, phospholipases or siderophores, but not between mortality and lipase production, gelatinase production, hydrophobicity or hemolytic activity. The results suggest that virulence of the strains tested was more related to the production of particular exoenzymes than to the measured colonization factors. 相似文献

We studied under laboratory conditions the post-embryonic developmentalrates (from nauplii to adult stage) of Mesocyclops thermocyclopoides,commonly found in the eutrophic and hypertrophic local ponds,in relation to different food types. Nauplii hatched from theeggs collected from laboratory-maintained mass cultures werereared at 25l.5C, using the following test diets: bacteria(Klebsiella aerogenes), cyanobacteria (Microcystis aeruginosa,as single cells and in the form of colonies), green algae (Chlorella,Scenedesmus and Chlorogonium), ciliates (Tetrahymena) and rotifers(Brachionus angularis). The developmental rates were fastest,and the proportion of nauplii reaching the copepodid stage andthat of copepodids reaching the adult stage the highest, withChlorogonium, followed by ciliates and rotifers. Developmentwas incomplete with bacteria and Microcys-tis.Ttie algae Chlorellaand Scenedesmus supported complete post-embryonic developmentonly when cultured in media enriched with beef extract, bactotryptoneand yeast extract. With rotifers as the exclusive food, >70%of the nauplii reached the copepodid stage, and >85% of thecopepodids the adult stage. The ratio (Dc/Dn) of copepodid duration(Dc) and naupliar duration (Dn) was significantly differentfrom 1.0, indicating the absence of isochronal development inM.thermocyclopoides. Our results show that post-embryonic developmentin this species is not possible with certain algal diets, probablybecause of nutritional deficiencies, and that the later stagenauplii are capable of capturing rotifers and utilizing themas food to complete their development to the adult stage. 相似文献

A parthenogenetic Artemia population from Torre Colimena, southernItaly, originally reported in 1998, is characterized by a multidisciplinaryapproach including cyst and naupliar biometry, morphometry ofadults, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of brood pouch, cytogeneticsand 16S rRNA PCR-RFLP analysis. We confirmed parthenogeneticstatus, inferred ploidy level and determined phenotypic andmolecular relationships of this population through comparisonswith other asexual Artemia strains as well as bisexual speciesfound (A. salina) or introduced (A. franciscana) in the Mediterraneanbasin. Cyst and naupliar sizes for Torre Colimena are amongthe smallest recorded for asexual Artemia while the oppositeis true for chorion thickness. Discriminant analysis of adultbody measurements shows increased differentiation (89.5% forthe first four out of the twelve functions produced) from tetraploidparthenogenetic strains and bisexual species (A. salina andA. franciscana). Scanning electron micrographs of brood pouchreveal the characteristic morphology of asexual strains, whilechromosome observations of instar-I nauplii unequivocally establishdiploidy. Restriction patterns give evidence that the TorreColimena population shares an identical set of mitochondrialDNA (mtDNA) polymorphisms with a diploid Spanish parthenogeneticstrain and it is well differentiated from other tetraploid aswell as bisexual auto- and allochthonous strains (A. salinaand A. franciscana) from the Mediterranean. The present studymay serve as a reference methodological framework for multidisciplinarycharacterizations and biodiversity assessments in the genusArtemia. 相似文献

The crustaceans cirripedes (barnacles) are characterised by the lack of fully developed abdominal segments at any stage of their life cycle. However, in nauplius larvae of the cirripede Sacculina carcini, we detected five small engrailed stripes in a postero-dorsal region behind the sixth thoracic segment, that we interpreted as a vestigial abdomen. Here, we present additional morphological and genetic data on Sacculina to further characterise this structure. Scanning electron microscopy analysis confirms the existence of a segmented region in this part of the naupliar body. However, at the late naupliar stage, this structure stops its development and degenerates. This region expresses the Hox gene Abdominal-B, which may indicate that it actually corresponds to the posterior-most part of the Sacculina trunk. In addition, Abdominal-B expression differentiates two types of larvae that probably correspond to male and female larvae, respectively. In contrast, no abdominal-A expression can be detected in the vestigial abdomen. We discuss the possible implication of the loss or divergence of the Abdominal-A protein in the impaired development of abdominal segments in cirripedes. 相似文献

The morphological features of the cephalic shield, labrum, abdominalprocess, antennules, antennae and mandibles of Balanus reticulatusare described and illustrated. The size and setation formulaeof the larvae are given at each stage. The trilobed labrum andlateral margin of the cephalic shield with numerous small spinesare diagnostic features for all the subsequent nauplius stages.Numerous small denticulate processes on the surface of the cypridcarapace are major morphological characteristics not found inother balanomorph species. We have constructed keys from stageII to stage VI for the predominant barnacle nauplii of Koreancoastal waters, based on morphological traits such as totallength, shield width, labrum shape, the presence or absenceof posterior shield spines and dorsal shield spines in stagesIV, V and VI, the specific setal type in the fourth segmentof the antennal endopodite, and setation formulae of Pollicipesmitella, Chthamalus challengeri, Megabalanus rosa, B.reticulatus,Balanus amphitrite and Balanus albicostatus. 相似文献

Cannibalistic feeding behavior of the brackish-water copepodSinocalanus tenellus was examined in the laboratory using CI-II,CIII-IV and CVI female as predators and NI-II, NIII-IV, NV-VIand CI-II as prey. In each prey-predator combination, the ingestionrate increased with increasing prey density to an asymptoticvalue. Cannibalism took place even when phytoplankton was availableas an alternative food supply. Based on a daily ration, theoptimal prey stages for CVI females, CIII-IV and CI-II are NI-VI,NI-IV and NI-II respectively. Under average, natural prey density(10 nauplii l1), S tenellus can achieve only a smallfraction (max 9%) of the daily minimum food requirement by cannibalisticfeeding. However, the impact of cannibalism on naupliar survivorshipcan be significant. When adult females occur at a density of10 l1, the mortality due to cannibalism attains 99.2%during the naupliar stages. 相似文献
