  • Density-dependent effects control the reproductive strategy and population growth of Aurelia aurita s.l. scyphistomae
    Schiariti, Agustin ...
    Aurelia aurita s.l. scyphistomae are capable of developing different asexual modes for propagation and thus present a multi-mode reproductive strategy. The reproduction rates and the reproductive ... strategy they adopt depend on a combination of various environmental parameters. We investigated the A. aurita s.l. polyp-to-polyp reproduction strategy and population growth in relation to polyp density. Our results confirmed that density-dependent factors control population growth of A. aurita s.l. scyphistomae in three different ways: (1) decreasing the polyp reproduction rate, (2) triggering the production of motile bud-like tissue particles and (3) inducing the detachment of developed scyphistomae...
