Abstract:
      The larvae of Styela canopus show the highest rates of settlement and metamorphosiswhen treated with 40 mM KCl-elevated seawater at 25℃ in temperature and 27.0 in salinity. Induced by 40 mM KCl-elevated seawater, it took Styela canopus larvae approximately 3 h after hatching to develop competence to settle and metamorphose. The present experiment shows that Styela canopus larvae is an ideal model organism for examining the efficiency of antifouling substance.
