Embryonic development

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Characterizing the timing of yolk testosterone metabolism and the effects of etiocholanolone on development in avian eggs
    Nicole A. Campbell, Rachel Angles, Rachel M. Bowden, Joseph M. Casto, Ryan T. Paitz
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2020 223: jeb210427 doi: 10.1242/jeb.210427 Published 20 February 2020

    Summary: Maternally derived steroids are metabolized during incubation. Here, we determine the timing of this embryonic metabolism for testosterone and assess early effects of metabolites on embryonic growth.

  • SHORT COMMUNICATION
    Embryonic growth rate affects telomere attrition: an experiment in a wild bird
    Oscar Vedder, Simon Verhulst, Erica Zuidersma, Sandra Bouwhuis
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb181586 doi: 10.1242/jeb.181586 Published 10 August 2018

    Highlighted Article: Faster embryonic growth rate, manipulated using incubation temperature, results in shorter telomere length at hatching in a wild bird species, the common tern.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Thermal spikes from the urban heat island increase mortality and alter physiology of lizard embryos
    Joshua M. Hall, Daniel A. Warner
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2018 221: jeb181552 doi: 10.1242/jeb.181552 Published 18 July 2018

    Summary: Nest temperatures in the urban landscape increase embryo developmental rate but reduce egg survival in lizards.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Tropical flatback turtle (Natator depressus) embryos are resilient to the heat of climate change
    Robert Howard, Ian Bell, David A. Pike
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2015 218: 3330-3335; doi: 10.1242/jeb.118778

    Summary: Flatback sea turtles nesting in tropical regions can withstand high-temperature incubation.

  • RESEARCH ARTICLE
    Consequences of calcium decline on the embryogenesis and life history of Daphnia magna
    Jamie-Lee Giardini, Norman D. Yan, Andreas Heyland
    Journal of Experimental Biology 2015 218: 2005-2014; doi: 10.1242/jeb.123513

    Summary: Ambient calcium is declining in thousands of soft-water lake habitats. Daphnia females provision their offspring with calcium and through that incur a potential allocation trade-off.
