The marine nematode Litoditis marina is widely distributed in intertidal zones around the
globe, yet the mechanisms underlying its broad adaptation to salinity remain elusive. In this …

Salinity is a critical abiotic factor for all living organisms. The ability to adapt to different
salinity environments determines an organism's survival and ecological niches. Litoditis …

Maintenance of osmotic homeostasis is essential for all organisms, especially for marine
animals in the ocean with 3% salinity or higher. However, the underlying molecular …

Salinity variation affects the physiological processes of fish. This study analyzed the
transcriptome of the gill tissue of Argyrosomus japonicus to determine the significantly …

Salinity is one of the most important abiotic factors directly affecting the reproduction,
molting, growth, immune, physiological and metabolic activities of Chinese mitten crab …

Crassostrea ariakensis naturally distributes in the intertidal and estuary region with relative
low salinity ranging from 10 to 25‰. To understand the adaptive capacity of oysters to …

Abstract The Iwagaki oyster Crassostrea nippona is an important aquaculture species with
significant potential for large-scale oyster farming. It is susceptible to the fluctuated salinity in …

Abstract The Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas is a dominant aquaculture species in many
intertidal zones throughout the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans and can tolerate a wide range of …

Aquatic fishes face osmotic stress continuously, and the gill is the first tissue that senses and
responds to the external osmotic challenges. However, the understandings of how the gill …

Environmental salinity creates a key barrier to limit the distribution of most aquatic
organisms. Adaptation to osmotic fluctuation is believed to be a factor facilitating species …
