i5K Comments for Tisbe holothuriae
behavior and feeding experiments. Harpacticoid copepods have novel genes for the synthesis and conversion of omega-3 fatty acids. They are often used as a first feed for larval marine fish. With the increasing dependence of the world on aquacultured species of marine fish it would be helpful to know how their main food source in nature produces the key nutrients which keep fish alive. In addition, , this species is often used for ecotoxicological assays because of the ease of rearing and reproducing this animal. Millions can be kept in a small volume of water. They respond differently to temperature, salinity and chemical exposures, so it is easy to match changes in demography and behavior to the external inputs. Having more information about the transcriptomes of this model marine harpacticoid copepod will help to facilitate environmental as well as theoretical studies on trophic transfer of nutrients.
