Reproduction and larval development in Antarctic krill ( Euphausia superba )
An understanding of the reproduction and larval development of Antarctic krill is important since reproductive output is a key factor influencing their overall population size. Seasonal cycles of maturity in krill are known to be finely synchronized with seasonal cycles of food, sea-ice and the ligh...
