Rotenone Decreases Hatching Success in Brine Shrimp Embryos by Blocking Development: Implications for Zooplankton Egg Banks
Fig 4
Washing embryos, and removing bulk embryonic water by a cycle of dehydration and rehydration, fails to reverse the effects of rotenone pre-exposure on emergence and hatching.
Relative abundance of three developmental stages at 43 h is displayed: black for embryo, grey for emergence stages, and white for larvae. Control lacked rotenone; percent values calculated from evaluation of 162 or 183 individuals for control and rotenone treatments, respectively.
