    Field conditions during grazing experiments in Kaneohe Bay, HI during 2012-2013 (EAGER: Copepod nauplii project)
    (Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO). Contact: bco-dmo-data@whoi.edu, 2021-01-20) Goetze, Erica ; Lenz, Petra ; Selph, Karen E.
    Environmental conditions in the field during each paired naupliar grazing and community grazing dilution experiment. Copepod nauplii can be a dominant component of the microzooplankton, and are present year-round in subtropical ecosystems. However, little is known about species-level differences in grazing rates and trophic impacts across the naupliar assemblage. Our goals were to measure ingestion by two species of mid-stage (N3-N4) copepod nauplii in a subtropical embayment, evaluate species’ differences in prey preferences, and estimate the trophic impact of naupliar grazing by each species.

    Metadata for field dilution experiments to measure community microzooplankton grazing rates in Kaneohe Bay, HI from 2012-2013 (EAGER: Copepod nauplii project)

    Overview of community microzooplankton dilution experiments, and Chl-based growth and mortality rates. All experimental water taken from Kaneohe South Bay station and processed on shore within 2 hours of collection on the collection date. Samples for Chl a (fluorometric) filtered and frozen within 5 h of collection, after storage in dark bottles in a cooler. All rate data are adjusted for pigment photoadaptation during the incubation, using red fluorescence from parallel flow cytometry samples (see text for details). *March 2012 chlorophyll data are conservative estimates: most chlorophyll had degraded to phaeopigments when fluorometrically analyzed, so the values represent the sum of Chl a and phaeopigment. No rate data were calculated from these samples. For a complete list of measurements, refer to the full dataset description in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'.

    RNA-Seq sample information and accessions numbers for the copepods Neocalanus flemingeri (Prince William Sound, Gulf of Alaska)(2015-2017) and Labidocera madurae (Kane‘ohe Bay, Oahu, Hawaii)(2017)

    This dataset includes accession information for RNA-seq data for the copepods Neocalanus flemingeri and Labidocera madurae used to generate de novo reference transcriptomes and for gene expression analysis. N. flemingeri adult females (CVI) were collected in Prince Williams Sound (Gulf of Alaska) during the fall (September 2015 and 2017) oceanographic cruises of the Seward line long-term observation program (ltop)(http://www.sfos.uaf.edu/sewardline/) and Northern Gulf of Alaska Long-Term Ecological Research Program (NGA LTER). For each sample collection date and preservation dates are listed. Labidocera madurae adult females (CVI) and mixed copepodid stages (CIII-CV) were collected in Kane‘ohe Bay, Oahu (Hawaii) in August 2015.

    Diapause vs. reproductive programs: transcriptional phenotypes in a keystone copepod
    (Nature Research, 2021-03-21) Lenz, Petra ; Roncalli, Vittoria ; Cieslak, Matthew C. ; Tarrant, Ann M. ; Castelfranco, Ann M. ; Hartline, Daniel K
    Many arthropods undergo a seasonal dormancy termed “diapause” to optimize timing of reproduction in highly seasonal environments. In the North Atlantic, the copepod Calanus finmarchicus completes one to three generations annually with some individuals maturing into adults, while others interrupt their development to enter diapause. It is unknown which, why and when individuals enter the diapause program. Transcriptomic data from copepods on known programs were analyzed using dimensionality reduction of gene expression and functional analyses to identify program-specific genes and biological processes. These analyses elucidated physiological differences and established protocols that distinguish between programs. Differences in gene expression were associated with maturation of individuals on the reproductive program, while those on the diapause program showed little change over time. Only two of six filters effectively separated copepods by developmental program. The first one included all genes annotated to RNA metabolism and this was confirmed using differential gene expression analysis. The second filter identified 54 differentially expressed genes that were consistently up-regulated in individuals on the diapause program in comparison with those on the reproductive program. Annotated to oogenesis, RNA metabolism and fatty acid biosynthesis, these genes are both indicators for diapause preparation and good candidates for functional studies.
