A simple inland culture system provides insights into ascidian post-embryonic developmental physiology.

Michael Sars Centre, University of Bergen, Bergen, Norway.
Maintenance and breeding of experimental organisms are fundamental to life sciences, but both initial and running costs, and hands-on zootechnical demands can be challenging for many laboratories. Here, we first aimed to further develop a simple protocol for reliable inland culture of tunicate model species of the genus. We cultured both and in controlled experimental conditions, with a focus on dietary variables, and quantified growth and maturation parameters.

An urgent problem in the agricultural science of livestock production is the adequate feeding of the queens of farm animals, in particular sheep kept on year-round pasture, especially in the second half of pregnancy and the first half of lactation. These periods are the most stressful, since the uterus does not receive enough necessary nutrients for the normal functioning of the body, embryonic and post-embryonic development of the offspring. In this regard, the purpose of our research was to increase the usefulness of the diet queens by carrying out additional feeding crushed barley with the inclusion of a mineral supplement developed taking into account the chemical composition of feed in Kazakhstan.

Article Synopsis
- The paper reviews Entomobrya species from the Brazilian Amazon, describing three previously known species and introducing six new species to the scientific community.
- Notably, the research reveals unique features, such as smooth and bifurcate prelabral chaetae, distinguishing these species within the genus.
- As a result of this study, the total number of Entomobrya species in Brazil has increased from 15 to 22, with most being endemic to the region, and a comprehensive identification key is provided for better classification.
Experimentally Manipulating the Thyroid Hormone Axis in Zebrafish.
Methods Mol Biol
November 2024
Biology Department, Boston College, Chestnut Hill, MA, USA.
Thyroid hormone (TH) is an endocrine factor with a diverse array of developmental, metamorphic, and metabolic functions conserved across vertebrates. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are a tractable model for endocrinology research, and recent research efforts focus on the roles of TH in zebrafish morphogenesis, growth and behavior. Several powerful approaches have been developed in zebrafish to modulate the TH axis and peripheral sensitivity to the hormone.
