Fig. 6. Eyestalk ablation affects cryptocyanin patterns in hemolymph. Data expressed as in Fig. 1. Arrows indicate ecdysis. (A) Hemolymph proteins follow normal patterns in the initial post-ablate molt cycle. In the subsequent cycle, cryptocyanin does not reappear in the hemolymph, in contrast to hemocyanin. Eyestalks were ablated on day 2, 6th instar (N=7). Shortened molt cycle of ablated crabs averaged 21 days. (B) Hemolymph proteins in control crabs (N=6). Molt cycle averaged 32 days.
