Influence of photoperiod and temperature on reproductive mode in the Brine shrimp, Artemia franciscana.
TL;DR: The mode of reproduction shown by each pair of mature shrimp was determined daily throughout their life span, and found to be greatly affected by photoperiod, and less influenced by temperature.

Influence of temperature and darkness on embryonic diapause termination in dormant Artemia cysts that have never been desiccated.
TL;DR: Environmental cues for embryonic diapause termination (EDT) were investigated in the laboratory-produced encysted dormant embryos of the brine shrimp, Artemia franciscana, finding that dormant cysts activated by various temperatures of the temperate zones or by continuous dark condition (DD), resulting in a state of EDT, were able to resume their subsequent development and hatch under appropriate conditions.

Isolation of a cDNA encoding a putative SPARC from the brine shrimp, Artemia franciscana.
TL;DR: Though the structural organization of SPARC was conserved among all the species studied, SPARC within a group was highly conserved within that group, but divergent between the two.

Cloning and Characterization of cDNAs Encoding Trehalase from Post-Dormant Embryos of the Brine Shrimp, Artemia franciscana
TL;DR: To investigate post-dormant regulation of trehalose metabolism in the brine shrimp, cloned and characterized two trehalase cDNAs from embryos of Artemia franciscana using a PCR probe corresponding to a highly conserved region among trehalases.

Influence of darkness on embryonic diapause termination in dormant Artemia cysts with no experience of desiccation.
TL;DR: The influence of pretreatment of DD (1-150 days) was investigated in detail by bioassay of hatching and it was found that all the DD conditions significantly promoted EDT, and DD led to cyclic changes of EDT.
