Anti-depressants make amphipods see the light.
Yasmin Guler,Alex T. Ford +1 more
TL;DR: The potential for highly prescribed anti-depressant drugs to change the behaviour of an ecologically relevant marine species in ways which could conceivably lead to population level effects is highlighted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Behavioural and transcriptional changes in the amphipod Echinogammarus marinus exposed to two antidepressants, fluoxetine and sertraline.
TL;DR: Fluoxetine and sertraline have a significant impact on the behaviour and neurophysiology of this amphipod at environmentally relevant concentrations with effects observed after relatively short periods of time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Paramyxean-microsporidian co-infection in amphipods: is the consensus that Microsporidia can feminise their hosts presumptive?
TL;DR: A population of the amphipod Echinogammarus marinus presenting both female bias and high levels of intersexuality, which are infected with D. deubenum was found to have a previously unknown paramyxean parasite related to organisms of the genus Marteilia, a group known to cause catastrophic sexual dysfunction in bivalves.
Journal ArticleDOI
Crustacean intersexuality is feminization without demasculinization: implications for environmental toxicology.
Stephen Short,Gongda Yang,Gongda Yang,Yasmin Guler,Amaia Green Etxabe,Peter Kille,Alex T. Ford +6 more
TL;DR: Gen expression in amphipods presenting parasite- and nonparasite-associated intersexuality is comprehensively analyzed and finds males maintain masculinity even when unambiguously feminized, demonstrating that evidence of feminization (even if detected with appropriate biomarkers) is not a proxy for demasculinization in crustaceans.
Journal ArticleDOI
Integrating field and laboratory evidence for environmental sex determination in the amphipod, Echinogammarus marinus
TL;DR: Findings suggest that there is some level of ESD present within the species, suggesting considerable plasticity in the sex differentiation pathway.
