ArticleEffects of season and latitude on the diet quality of the invasive Asian shore crab Hemigrapsus sanguineus(Inter Research, 2023-01-26) Reese, Tanner C. ; Alder, Jill ; Asay, Emily Gail ; Blakeslee, April M. H. ; Cabrera, Doreen ; Crane, Laura C. ; Fletcher, Laura S. ; Pinkston, Emily ; Repetto, Michele F. ; Smith, Nanette ; Stancil, Carter ; Tepolt, Carolyn K. ; Toscano, Benjamin J. ; Griffen, Blaine D.Invasive species alter invaded ecosystems via direct impacts such as consumption. In turn, an invasive species’ ability to thrive in new habitats depends on its ability to exploit available resources, which may change over time and space. Diet quality and quantity are indicators of a consumer’s consumptive effects and can be strongly influenced by season and latitude. We examined the effects of season and latitude on the diet quality and quantity of the invasive Asian shore crab Hemigrapsus sanguineus throughout a non-winter sampling year at 5 different sites spanning 8° of latitude across its invaded United States range. We found that diet quality, averaged through time, largely follows an expected latitudinal cline, being higher in the center of its range and lower toward the southern and northern edges. We also found that while some sites show similar patterns of diet quality variation with season, no pattern is consistent across all latitudes. Finally, we found that crabs at sites with low diet quality during summer reproductive months did not compensate by increasing total consumption. Because the Asian shore crab is an important consumer in its invaded ecosystems, understanding how its diet quality and quantity vary with season and latitude can help us better understand how this species influences trophic interactions and community structure, how it has been able to establish across a wide ecological and environmental range, and where future range expansion is most likely to occur.

DatasetPredation intensity on marine invertebrate communities across latitude observed using underwater video (Competition and Predation across Latitude)(Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO).

Invertebrate communities developed under low predation for three or 12 months within cages. Mature prey communities were then exposed to ambient predation, with a high definition camera recording all predation events during the diurnal period over three days of exposure. This experiment provided an assessment of predation intensity (and predator identity) to complement predator exclusion experiments that measured impact of predators on prey community assembly.

ArticlePast energy allocation overwhelms current energy stresses in determining energy allocation trade-offs(Wiley Open Access, 2023-08-08) Griffen, Blaine D. ; Bolander, Mikayla ; Blakeslee, April ; Crane, Laura C. ; Repetto, Michele F. ; Tepolt, Carolyn K. ; Toscano, Benjamin J.Regeneration of lost appendages is a gradual process in many species, spreading energetic costs of regeneration through time. Energy allocated to the regeneration of lost appendages cannot be used for other purposes and, therefore, commonly elicits energetic trade-offs in biological processes. We used limb loss in the Asian shore crab Hemigrapsus sanguineus to compare the strength of energetic trade-offs resulting from historic limb losses that have been partially regenerated versus current injuries that have not yet been repaired. Consistent with previous studies, we show that limb loss and regeneration results in trade-offs that reduce reproduction, energy storage, and growth. As may be expected, we show that trade-offs in these metrics from historic limb losses far outweigh trade-offs from current limb losses, and correlate directly with the degree of historic limb loss that has been regenerated. As regenerating limbs get closer to their normal size, these historical injuries get harder to detect, despite the continued allocation of additional resources to limb development. Our results demonstrate the importance of and a method for identifying historic appendage losses and of quantifying the amount of regeneration that has already occurred, as opposed to assessing only current injury, to accurately assess the strength of energetic trade-offs in animals recovering from nonlethal injury.

ArticleShift from income breeding to capital breeding with latitude in the invasive Asian shore crab Hemigrapsus sanguineus(Nature Research, 2024-03-20) Reese, Tanner C. ; Blakeslee, April M. H. ; Crane, Laura C. ; Fletcher, Laura S. ; Repetto, Michele F. ; Smith, Nanette ; Stancil, Carter ; Tepolt, Carolyn K. ; Toscano, Benjamin J. ; Griffen, Blaine D.Organisms vary in the timing of energy acquisition and use for reproduction. Thus, breeding strategies exist on a continuum, from capital breeding to income breeding. Capital breeders acquire and store energy for breeding before the start of the reproductive season, while income breeders finance reproduction using energy acquired during the reproductive season. Latitude and its associated environmental drivers are expected to heavily influence breeding strategy, potentially leading to latitudinal variation in breeding strategies within a single species. We examined the breeding strategy of the Asian shore crab Hemigrapsus sanguineus at five sites spanning nearly 10° of latitude across its invaded United States range. We hypothesized that the primary breeding strategy of this species would shift from income breeding to capital breeding as latitude increases. We found that though this species’ breeding strategy is dominated by capital breeding throughout much of the range, income breeding increases in importance at lower latitudes. This latitudinal pattern is likely heavily influenced by the duration of the foraging and breeding seasons, which also vary with latitude. We also found that reproductive characteristics at the northern and southern edges of the invaded range were consistent with continued range expansion. We suggest that the reproductive flexibility of the Asian shore crab is a key facilitator of its continued invasion success. Our results highlight the influence of latitude on the breeding strategy of a species and emphasize the need for further research regarding the ecological importance and implications of flexibility in breeding strategies within species.
