Chemical Communication in Crustaceans

Crustaceans are ecologically and economically important. They are fished and farmed extensively for food and are model organisms for scientific research. Social interacttions of these invertebrates are generally mediated through chemicals. Hence, the study of chemical communication by crustaceans is fundamental to understanding their biology and developing strategies to manage and protect them. It also promises discoveries of new waterborne natural products. This book provides the first com...
