- W2044651607 abstract "Heterosaccus lunatus parasitizes the portunid crab, Charybdis callianassa, in Moreton bay, Queensland, Australia. With the host crabs maintained at 25 °C this sacculinid rhizocephalan released larval broods every 5–6 days. This study examines the effect of photoperiod on the sex proportions of successive larval broods of individual parasites. Parasitized host crabs were maintained individually in circulating 25 °C seawater within two light–tight boxes, each with a controlled light–dark cycle operating. Box A had an LD 16:8 cycle (summer) and Box B an LD 8:16 cycle (winter). Both boxes had five host crabs and when parasites released their larval broods the larvae were flushed out and retained in a filter. Each captured brood then had its larvae sized to determine the proportions of the two sexes present. H. lunatus is ideal for such study because the sex(es) of all the larval stages (four naupliar stages and the cyprid) can be unequivocally identified by size (length). The experiment was run over a 6-week period during March and April 2004 when a total of 86 larval broods were released and their sex proportion(s) determined. It is concluded that larval sex determination is effected by photoperiod, with females becoming dominant under the winter condition (LD 8:16) and males dominant under the summer condition (LD 16:8). All initial broods were male dominated, so for Box A broods the male preponderance was maintained, whilst for Box B broods there was the progressive changeover to female preponderance. Such environmental sex determination is unusual because it is oogenesis which is being controlled, whereby two ovum sizes can be produced, either singly or together, the larger being the male egg. Further work is now necessary to verify the likely hormonal control processes involved." @default.
