摘要

Abstract

Cnidarians

being regarded as 'basal' metazoan animals

are considered to have relatively high plasticity in terms of sex reversal. In this study we used an experimental approach to demonstrate sexual differentiation and plasticity in benthic polyps and pelagic medusae of

Aurelia

sp.1 maintained at different temperatures. Results indicated that in

Aurelia

sp.1

sex differentiation has been determined at the polyp stage and that all medusae originating from a given polyp are

phenotypically

of the same sex. In addition

the sex of polyps budding from the same clone (either male or female) at different temperatures appears to be the same as that of the parent. The sex of medusae that had originated from a known-sex polyp was observed to remain the same as that of the parent

irrespective of differences in strobilation or rearing temperatures. These results indicate that the mechanism of sex determination of

Aurelia

sp.1. is not influenced by prevailing temperature regimes. A comparison of variability in terms of sexual plasticity of

Aurelia

sp.1 with that of Hydrozoa and Anthozoa suggests that species characterized by a free-swimming medusa life stage have a high dispersal potential

which probably results in a lower rate of sex reversal.
