Variation in the dispersal potential of non-feeding invertebrate larvae: The desperate larva hypothesis and larval size (2003, background): “There is some evidence that larval size does influence larval longevity, with larger larvae remaining active for longer than smaller larvae in an ascidian (Marshall et al. 2002) and 3 corals (Isomura & Nishihira 2001).”
The relative contribution of dinoflagellate photosynthesis and stored lipids to the survivorship of symbiotic larvae of the reef-building corals (2010, methodology): “The light intensity was lower than that found under natural conditions in shallow water; however, we wished to avoid increasing the water temperature in the incubator, and the light level was suYcient to assess diVerences between light and dark conditions (see Isomura and Nishihira 2001 ).”
Larval settlement rates and gene flow of broadcast-spawning (Acropora tenuis) and planula-brooding (Stylophora pistillata) corals (2003, background): “Isomura & Nishihira (2001) studied the relationships between planula size and survivorship in 3 brooding coral species (Pocillopora damicornis, Seriatopora histrix, and Stylophora pistillata).”
Substrate composition and adult distribution determine recruitment patterns in a Caribbean brooding coral (2005, background): “Besides environmental factors, recruitment success and pattern depend on a planula’s behavior (Butman 1987, Isomura & Nishihira 2001, Miller & Mundy 2003) and the presence of adult colonies (Polachek & Stimson 1994, Fearon & Cameron 1997).”
The physiological and molecular responses of larvae from the reef-building coral Pocillopora damicornis exposed to near-future increases in temperature and pCO2 (2012, methodology): “Thirdly, we measured larval size as an indicator of dispersal potential (Isomura and Nishihira 2001), and more generally, fitness.”
