In Asellus aquaticus it was shown that: (1) populations of South Europe have embryos/larvae resistant to 4 °C, a life span of 9 months, small body size, and lack of reproductive diapause; (2) populations of North Europe have a life span of 20 months, large body size, long reproductive diapause, and embryos/larvae not resistant to 4 °(3) life span and reproductive diapause are genetic characters; and (4) body size is determined by indeterminate growth.

Abstract
In Asellus aquaticus it was shown that: (1) populations of South Europe have embryos/larvae resistant to 4 °C, a life span of 9 months, small body size, and lack of reproductive diapause; (2) populations of North Europe have a life span of 20 months, large body size, long reproductive diapause, and embryos/larvae not resistant to 4 °(3) life span and reproductive diapause are genetic characters; and (4) body size is determined by indeterminate growth.File in questo prodotto:
