Cephalopods are a relatively small class of molluscs (~ 800 species), but they support some
large industrial scale fisheries and numerous small-scale, local, artisanal fisheries. For …

A recent revival in using cephalopods as experimental animals has rekindled interest in their
biology and life cycles, information with direct applications also in the rapidly growing …

Octopuses of the family Octopodidae adopt two major life-history strategies. The rst is the
production of relatively few, large eggs resulting in well-developed hatchlings that resemble …

Squid are important components of many marine ecosystems from the poles to the equator,
serving as both important predators and prey. Novel aspects of their growth and …

The impact of temperature on cephalopod growth has become a productive area of study.
Current knowledge of squid growth owes much to earlier laboratory studies on octopuses …

The regulatory noncoding small RNAs (sRNAs) of bacteria are key elements influencing
gene expression; however, there has been little evidence that beneficial bacteria use these …

Cephalopods (nautiluses, cuttlefishes, squids and octopuses) exhibit direct development
and display two major developmental modes: planktonic and benthic. Planktonic hatchlings …

When using cephalopods as experimental animals, a number of factors, including morality,
quality of information derived from experiments, and public perception, drives the motivation …

Chokka squid biomass and catch are highly variable, likely owing to their links to changes in
the ecosystem, which impact spawning and recruitment. A synthesis of basic ecosystem …

Background The knowledge about the capacity of organisms' early life stages to adapt to
elevated temperatures is very limited but crucial to understand how marine biota will …
