Salpa thompsoni Transcriptome or Gene expression
This study reports the results of the application of whole-transcriptome sequencing analysis to provide new insights into the relationship between environmental variability and... -
First reference genome for the Southern Ocean salp, Salpa thompsoni (Urochord...
A preliminary genome sequence has been assembled for the Southern Ocean salp, Salpa thompsoni (Urochordata, Thaliacea). Despite the ecological importance of the species in... -
Diet composition of krill and salps in the Southern Ocean
Samples were collected during the Polarstern cruise PS112 between March and May 2018 along the western Antarctic Peninsula in the Southern Ocean. Genomic DNA was isolated from... -
Diet composition of Antarctic krill and salps using 18S rRNA metabracoding of...
We compared the prey community of Antarctic krill retrieved from the 18S regions V4 and V7 and assessed the effect of different processing procedures on the prey community of... -
Season- and form-specific sampling of the pelagic tunicate Salpa thompsoni
Construction of a season- and form-specific de novo transcriptome of S. thompsoni, including salp samples (aggregates and solitaries) from different sampling campaigns (winter... -
Salpa thompsoni gut gene expression
An archive of gene sequences expressed within the gut of Salpa thompsoni was prepared to provide new insights into the digestive system of the tunicate zooplankton salps. Here,... -
Characteristics of the thaliacean Salpa thompsoni population in the Atlantic ...
The pelagic tunicate Salpa thompsoni accounts for a large portion of the zooplankton in the Southern Ocean. This dataset contains information on S. thompsoni distribution,... -

(Table 2) Salpa thompsoni ingestion rates and daily rations estimated in the ...
Filtration rates (FR) were calculated assuming an average Chl-a concentration of 0.9±0.6 µg/l (range 0.2-2.1) at stations where salps were encountered. In brackets are... -
(Table 1) Salpa thompsoni abundance and biomass in the Eastern Bellingshausen...
Only stations with salp catches are listed. Excretion rates were assumed to be 34.8 % in the Eastern Bellinghausen Sea. Potential carbon flux via salp pellets was calculated by... -
Bacterioplankton abundance and heterotrophic production from the Chatham Rise...
Heterotrophic bacterioplankton abundance and production was sampled from six to eight depths in the euphotic zone on the SalpPOOp voyage off the east coast of New Zealand in... -
Salp abundance and size-structure at Chatham Rise, east of New Zealand, measu...
Double oblique zooplankton net tows from 200 m water depth to the sea-surface were carried out using a 0.7 m diameter Bongo frame with paired 200 µm mesh nets, a General... -
Blastozooid growth experiment of Salpa thomsponi during RV Tangaroa cruise TA...
A mature Salpa thompsoni oozooid was collected using a so-called salp-net (1 m diameter ring net with 202 µm mesh fitted with a 30 litre non-filtering cod-end) at the Chatham... -
Daytime-dependent abundance of Salpa thomsponi during RV Tangaroa cruise TAN1...
Daytime-dependent abundance changes of Salpa thomsponi within the top 200 m of the water column were studied at the Chatham Rise, New Zealand in October 2018 using oblique Bongo... -
Oral-atrial length and developmental stage composition of Salpa thompsoni col...
Development stage composition (demography) of a Salpa thomsponi population was studied at the Chatham Rise, New Zealand in October and November 2018 using oblique krill net tows... -
Salp grazing and fecal pellet production at Chatham Rise, east of New Zealand...
Salps were collected using double oblique Bongo tows, with 0.7m diameter frames equipped with 202 µm nets, General Oceanics flow meters, and an RBR temperature depth recorder....
