Some ideas about the role of lipids in the life cycle of Calanus finmarchicus

A conceptual model of the possible role of lipids in the life cycle of Calanus finmarchicus is proposed. Lipid storage could play a key role at various levels: 1) By triggering diapause through variations in cholesterol and fatty acid derived hormone levels. 2) By determining the overwintering depth...
