摘要

Abstract

5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is a biological monoamine neurotransmitter in the central nervous system and gonads of crustaceans to induce gonadal maturation. To better understand the effects of 5-HT and its receptors on reproductive development in

Artemia

a 5-HT type 7 receptor gene (

7Ar

) was identified in parthenogenetic

Artemia

and characterized. Sequence analysis revealed that the open reading frame of

7Ar

encodes a 414-aa protein.

7Ar

showed higher expression in both brain and ovary at early embryo stage

7Ar

could be detected during ovarian development and the highest expression was observed at early embryo stage. Silencing of the

7Ar

Artemia

at early embryo stage decreased significantly the expression level of

7Ar

gene and protein at late oocyte

early embryo

and late embryo stage. Moreover

silencing of the

7Ar

resulted in a decreased fecundity

which corresponds to abnormal oocytes during the embryo development.

Artemia

tended to produce nauplii after the silencing of

7Ar

indicating that

7Ar

may also involve in the determination of its reproduction mode. The findings of this study provide an insight into the regulation of reproductive development in

Artemia

and the function of

7Ar
