Rezension

From the reviews:



"The best-defined types of dormancy are diapause and quiescence. These two remarkable abilities are discussed in the new book Diapause in Aquatic Invertebrates … . The book written by 20 authors, examines the current state of knowledge over 14 chapters and two major parts. … All in all, the book is the best available on the phenomenon of diapause. … This interesting volume … has something to say about the nature of life." (Ralph Schill, Lab Times, Issue 2, 2008)

Portrait

Victor R. Alekseev , Research Professor, Head of Taxonomy department, Zoological Institute of The Russain Academy of Sciences, the author of the first monograph on diapause in Crustaceans (1990, Nauka Academic Publishers, Moscow), the organiser of the First International Symposium on Diapause in Crustaceans (September 1994, St. Petersburg, Russia) and Workshop on Diapause in Aquatic Animals (October 2003, Palanza, Italy, together with professor Oscar Ravera and Dr. Riccardo diBernardi).

Bart De Stasio, Associated Professor, Department of Biology, Lawrence University, USA, a well known specialist in Crustaceans’s diapause, the first who applied the very productive idea of seed bank (egg-bank) to aquatic ecosystems.

John J. Gilbert , Professor of ecology, Department of Biological Sciences, Dartmouth College, Hanover, New Hampshire USA a world known specialist in diapause and signal chemicals in the Rotifers.
