This unique and valuable book is based on the world's literature, including Russian research not widely available. It offers systematically arranged data on the physiology of Cladocera, assisting with explanation of their life and distribution, as well as discussion on directions of future research in normal and pathological physiology. Special expert contributions in genetics, immunology, and cytology round out the physiological chapters and provide comprehensive insight into the state of knowledge of Cladocera and its underlying mechanisms. Despite the increasing use of Cladocera in research and study, physiological background information on these creatures is fragmentary. Hundreds of unconnected publications have been accumulated on their physiology, and a synthesis and general representation of the literature has been much needed for the many researchers working with this organism. The Physiology of Cladocera stands alone as a valuable and comprehensive offering in this area for many researchers and students. KEY FEATURES: • Collects and synthesizes from the worldwide literature the state of knowledge of Cladoceran physiology • Forward-looking perspective incorporates information from the emerging technological worlds of genomics, cytology, chemical communication, and immunology • Provides foundational information on Cladocera physiology for researchers in various fields, including conservation and evolutionary biology, genomics, ecology, ecotoxicology, and comparative physiology mySku 2630
