Among marine invertebrates, bryozoans are small, not well known, and complex to identify. Nevertheless, they offer unique opportunities for whole-body generation research, because of their colonial, modular mode of growth. Here, we describe detailed methods for collection of bryozoans from a range of environments, sample preparation and identification, culture and feeding, spawning and breeding, marking colonies for growth studies, and histological preparation.
在海洋无脊椎动物中,苔藓动物体型较小,鲜为人知,且难以识别。然而,由于其具有群体、模块化的生长方式,它们为整体生物发生研究提供了独特的机会。在这里,我们描述了从各种环境中收集苔藓动物、样品准备和鉴定、培养和饲养、产卵和繁殖、标记用于生长研究的群体以及组织学准备的详细方法。
