        <gco:CharacterString>Ciliated band length of early echinoderm larvae Dataset Description: &amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;strong&amp;gt;Study Summary: &amp;lt;/strong&amp;gt;The feeding larvae of echinoderms take two distinct forms: plutei (echinoids, ophiuroids), which have calcified skeletal rods supporting long, slender arms bearing the ciliated band, and non-plutei (asteroids, holothuroids), where the ciliated band is borne on rounded lobes of tissue that do not contain skeletal rods. Feeding larvae of all four classes of echinoderms are known to alter the length of their ciliated bands in response to food ration, with larvae fed low rations producing longer ciliated bands relative to body size than larvae fed high rations. Prior work suggests that the structural cost of adding a given length of ciliated band might be lower for plutei than for non-plutei, which might affect the scope for phenotypic plasticity in ciliated band length in the two types of larvae.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;In this study we test the hypothesis that plutei and support a greater length of ciliated band per unit biomass than non-plutei by comparing ciliated band length and protein content of larvae of eight species (with at least one species from each echinoderm class that includes feeding larvae) at two timepoints in early development.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt; Methods and Sampling: &amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;strong&amp;gt;Collection of adults and spawning:&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;lt;/strong&amp;gt;Adults of each species were collected from intertidal or shallow subtidal zones from various sites in Los Angeles County and transported to California State University Long Beach, where they were maintained in recirculating seawater tanks at 16 °C until their use in experiments. Experiments were carried out on one species at a time, depending on reproductive seasonality for that species.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Spawning was induced using standard methods (e.g., M. Strathmann, 1987). The echinoids &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Dendraster excentricus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Lytechnius pictus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Strongylocentrotus purpuratus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;S. fragilis&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; were induced to spawn via injection of 0.2-1.0 mL (depending on adult size) 0.53 M KCL into the perivisceral coelom. The asteroids &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Patiria miniata&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Astropecten armatus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; were induced to spawn by injection of 1-3 mL 100 µM 1-methyladenine. The holothuroid &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Apostichopus parvimensis&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; was injected with 3 mL of 200 µM NGLWY-amide (Kato et al., 2009). The ophiuroid &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Ophiothrix spiculata&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; was exposed to 4 °C water in the dark for 15 minutes, then to room temperature water and sunlight for 15 minutes; this treatment was repeated for up to two hours (Selvakumaraswamy &amp;amp;amp; Byrne, 2000). For all species, adults were each induced to spawn in their own isolated containers, allowing us to control subsequent fertilizations. Spawning continued until a minimum of three parents of each sex were obtained. Sperm from each spawning male was combined with eggs from each spawning female. Once the larvae reached the swimming stage (~24 hours), the offspring of all parents were combined to produce a genetically diverse population.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;strong&amp;gt;Culturing: &amp;lt;/strong&amp;gt;Larvae were distributed into seven replicate 2 l beakers, with a total of 500 larvae per beaker (for &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;S. purpuratus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;, 14 beakers of 500 larvae each were produced since greater numbers were needed for their protein analysis due to their small size). Larvae were fed 6000 cells ml&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;−1&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Rhodomonas lens&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; which were isolated from their growth medium via centrifugation, resuspended in FSW, and counted using a BD Accuri C6 flow cytometer. Cultures were maintained in the 16 °C environmental chamber and continuously stirred by a paddle system (Strathmann, 1987). Daily water changes began on the third day post fertilization (dpf), allowing larvae to develop without disturbance for a day while still in or just completing the pre-feeding period. To change the water, cultures were filtered through a 60 µm sieve to capture larvae. The sieve was submerged in shallow water while filtering so larvae were not exposed to air. Larvae were then gently rinsed from the filter with fresh FSW back into their cleaned beakers and fed.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;strong&amp;gt;Sampling:&amp;lt;/strong&amp;gt; For all species except &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;D. excentricus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;, sampling for images and protein analysis occurred at 5 (“early-development”) and 10 dpf (“mid-development”). Sampling for &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;D. excentricus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; occurred at 3 and 5 dpf due to their more rapid development and early formation of the rudiment. For imaging, ten individuals were sampled haphazardly from each beaker and placed on a glass slide. The larvae were oriented ventral-side and viewed with an Olympus BX5 compound microscope. The first five correctly oriented larvae encountered were photographed. The microscope was outfitted with both a digital camera and a z-axis drive, both controlled with Micromanager software. This allowed for the creation of an image stack of the entire larva with images taken at 2 µm depth intervals. The ciliated band was measured in three dimensions using maps of pre-determined landmarks. We identified the x, y, and z coordinates of the landmarks with ImageJ and used Excel to calculate the distance between coordinates and sum the total ciliary band length (McEdward, 1985; Rendleman et al., 2018)&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;</gco:CharacterString>

Many ecologically and economically important marine invertebrates (e.g., oysters, crabs, and sea urchins) have life cycles that include feeding larval stages that live drifting in the water as part of the plankton. These larvae spend days or weeks feeding on tiny algal particles to fuel their development until they can metamorphose into juveniles. In nature, however, the plankton includes not only edible particles, but also many particles that are too large to be eaten but which may interfere with feeding on edible particles. These include, for example, large algal particles, eggs and embryos of other invertebrates, re-suspended sediment, and anthropogenic nano- and micro-plastics. When larvae encounter large inedible particles, they may respond by altering their swimming behavior to avoid them, or by capturing and then rejecting them. Such interactions reduce the rate at which larvae can capture edible particles, which forces them to either spend more time feeding before metamorphosis (increasing their overall risk of dying due to planktonic predators), or to metamorphose with less energy, producing juveniles in relatively poor condition. This project examines how large inedible particles affect feeding, time to metamorphosis, and juvenile condition in the larvae of diverse marine invertebrates. The project has the potential to dramatically change our understanding of how larvae feed and survive in natural communities, and thus our understanding of the population dynamics of these important organisms. The project will support research training opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students at California State University Long Beach, a primarily undergraduate institution, as well as summer research internships for students at two local community colleges. Project data will be integrated into laboratory modules in undergraduate courses. Finally, data on the reproductive biology of diverse California marine invertebrates will be added to a public website that is widely used by members of the public, students, and biologists interested in the development, life histories, ecology, and evolution of these common animals.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The factors that control planktonic duration and juvenile condition in marine invertebrates with feeding larvae have long been recognized as critical to understanding their ecology and evolution. Larval feeding environment is clearly one of those factors, but previous work has focused almost exclusively on one feature of that environment, the abundance of food. This project will evaluate the importance of another potentially critical dimension of the larval feeding environment: the presence of large inedible particles, which are frequently abundant in natural plankonic communities. It takes a comparative approach to address two key questions about the effects of large inedible particles on larvae (including those of echinoderms, annelids, and molluscs) that feed using several different particle capture mechanisms. First, do large inedible particles present in natural plankton reduce larval feeding rates? And second, does the presence of large inedible particles extend larval planktonic duration or result in the production of lower quality juveniles? Feeding rates of larvae will be measured in short-term experiments in which larvae are exposed to both food and to natural or artificial large inedible particles over a range of concentrations. Effects of large inedible particles on planktonic duration and juvenile quality will be measured by culturing larvae through their entire life cycles in the presence of large inedible particles at various concentrations. Because feeding performance is an important determinant of planktonic duration, larval survival, and juvenile condition, the project will add greatly to our understanding of how conditions in the plankton affect the population dynamics of the many marine invertebrates with feeding larvae.&lt;/p&gt;</gco:CharacterString>

                <gco:CharacterString>&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;strong&amp;gt;Collection of adults and spawning:&amp;amp;nbsp; &amp;lt;/strong&amp;gt;Adults of each species were collected from intertidal or shallow subtidal zones from various sites in Los Angeles County and transported to California State University Long Beach, where they were maintained in recirculating seawater tanks at 16 °C until their use in experiments. Experiments were carried out on one species at a time, depending on reproductive seasonality for that species.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Spawning was induced using standard methods (e.g., M. Strathmann, 1987). The echinoids &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Dendraster excentricus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Lytechnius pictus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;, &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Strongylocentrotus purpuratus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;S. fragilis&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; were induced to spawn via injection of 0.2-1.0 mL (depending on adult size) 0.53 M KCL into the perivisceral coelom. The asteroids &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Patiria miniata&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Astropecten armatus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; were induced to spawn by injection of 1-3 mL 100 µM 1-methyladenine. The holothuroid &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Apostichopus parvimensis&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; was injected with 3 mL of 200 µM NGLWY-amide (Kato et al., 2009). The ophiuroid &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Ophiothrix spiculata&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; was exposed to 4 °C water in the dark for 15 minutes, then to room temperature water and sunlight for 15 minutes; this treatment was repeated for up to two hours (Selvakumaraswamy &amp;amp;amp; Byrne, 2000). For all species, adults were each induced to spawn in their own isolated containers, allowing us to control subsequent fertilizations. Spawning continued until a minimum of three parents of each sex were obtained. Sperm from each spawning male was combined with eggs from each spawning female. Once the larvae reached the swimming stage (~24 hours), the offspring of all parents were combined to produce a genetically diverse population.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;strong&amp;gt;Culturing: &amp;lt;/strong&amp;gt;Larvae were distributed into seven replicate 2 l beakers, with a total of 500 larvae per beaker (for &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;S. purpuratus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;, 14 beakers of 500 larvae each were produced since greater numbers were needed for their protein analysis due to their small size). Larvae were fed 6000 cells ml&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;−1&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;Rhodomonas lens&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; which were isolated from their growth medium via centrifugation, resuspended in FSW, and counted using a BD Accuri C6 flow cytometer. Cultures were maintained in the 16 °C environmental chamber and continuously stirred by a paddle system (Strathmann, 1987). Daily water changes began on the third day post fertilization (dpf), allowing larvae to develop without disturbance for a day while still in or just completing the pre-feeding period. To change the water, cultures were filtered through a 60 µm sieve to capture larvae. The sieve was submerged in shallow water while filtering so larvae were not exposed to air. Larvae were then gently rinsed from the filter with fresh FSW back into their cleaned beakers and fed.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;strong&amp;gt;Sampling:&amp;lt;/strong&amp;gt; For all species except &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;D. excentricus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt;, sampling for images and protein analysis occurred at 5 (“early-development”) and 10 dpf (“mid-development”). Sampling for &amp;lt;em&amp;gt;D. excentricus&amp;lt;/em&amp;gt; occurred at 3 and 5 dpf due to their more rapid development and early formation of the rudiment. For imaging, ten individuals were sampled haphazardly from each beaker and placed on a glass slide. The larvae were oriented ventral-side and viewed with an Olympus BX5 compound microscope. The first five correctly oriented larvae encountered were photographed. The microscope was outfitted with both a digital camera and a z-axis drive, both controlled with Micromanager software. This allowed for the creation of an image stack of the entire larva with images taken at 2 µm depth intervals. The ciliated band was measured in three dimensions using maps of pre-determined landmarks. We identified the x, y, and z coordinates of the landmarks with ImageJ and used Excel to calculate the distance between coordinates and sum the total ciliary band length (McEdward, 1985; Rendleman et al., 2018)&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;</gco:CharacterString>
