Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) of male gametes following parental ocean acidification during lab experiments conducted in spring 2022. ...

Ocean acidification (OA) resulting from anthropogenic CO2 emissions is impairing the reproduction of marine organisms. While parental exposure to OA can protect offspring via carryover effects, this phenomenon is poorly understood in many marine invertebrate taxa. We examined how parental exposure t...

Description
Summary:Ocean acidification (OA) resulting from anthropogenic CO2 emissions is impairing the reproduction of marine organisms. While parental exposure to OA can protect offspring via carryover effects, this phenomenon is poorly understood in many marine invertebrate taxa. We examined how parental exposure to acidified (pH 7.40) versus ambient (pH 7.72) seawater influenced reproduction and offspring performance across six gametogenic cycles (13 weeks) in the estuarine sea anemone Nematostella vectensis. This dataset pertains to the physiology of gametes released by adults in the OA treatment, specifically the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) of sperm. ...
