Instar-Dependent Molecular Response Strategies to Microplastic Exposure in Endangered Juvenile Horseshoe Crab Tachypleus tridentatus
Microplastic pollution has become an emerging threat to marine biodiversity, yet the developmental-stage-specific responses of endangered marine species remain poorly characterized. Tri-spine horseshoe crab Tachypleus tridentatus, a threatened marine arthropod of high ecological and conservation value, is exposed to mi...
