The main characteristics of the monogonont rotifer males are haploidy, dwarfism, progenesis and gut vestigialization to varying extents. Although these traits co-occur, they are probably unlinked from the evolutionary point of view. Commonly, all of these characteristics are directly related to the small size of the male egg, equipped with a reduced amount of yolk. A more ecological approach can,...
To test the influence of storage conditions on recovery and life-history traits of dormant animals we subjected cohorts of a bdelloid rotifer (Macrotrachela quadricornifera) and a nematode (Panagrolaimus rigidus) to three different conditions during a 26-d anhydrobiosis period. These conditions were (1) standard conditions in our laboratory (AC), (2) a flight to the U.S.A. and storage there (KSC),...
