Resistance of dormant stages of planktonic invertebrates to adverse environmental conditions (2013, background): “…(trehalose) and other compounds (e.g. glycerol) that can act as cryoprotectants is also crucial for the survival of latent eggs in a dry state (Clegg, 2001; Clegg and Trotman, 2002; Lapinski and Tunnacliffe, 2003; Tunnacliffe and Lapinski, 2003; Tunnacliffe et al., 2005; Watanabe, 2006).”
The hyporheic zone as an invertebrate refuge: a review of variability in space, time, taxa and behaviour (2012, background): “This resilience is facilitated by adaptations, which may be morphological, physiological, lifehistory related, or behavioural (Townsend and Hildrew 1994; Lytle and Poff 2004;Watanabe 2006), the latter involving use of physical habitat refuges (Lake 2000, 2011).”
Functional ecological genomics to demonstrate general and specific responses to abiotic stress (2007, background): “Furthermore, the dehydration process is accompanied by organic osmolyte accumulation (trehalose, glycerol, sorbitol) to prevent membrane damage, scavenge free radicals, and avoid oxidation of proteins and phospholipids (Watanabe 2006).”
The elements of seasonal adaptations in insects (2007, background): “Anhydrobiosis is known in several small invertebrates such as crustaceans, rotifers, tardigrades, and nematodes, in springtails, and in the chironomid midge Polypedilum vanderplanki (Hinton) (Greenslade 1981; Crowe et al. 1992; Watanabe 2006).”
