Description
Summary:The importance of studying digestive physiology in marine larvae provides valuable insights into their survival, ecological interactions, evolutionary adaptations, larval dispersal, and responses to environmental changes. This knowledge is essential for understanding and managing marine ecosystems, conserving biodiversity, and supporting sustainable practices in aquaculture and fisheries. More specifically, a review of the digestive physiology in marine larvae is important for larval survival and recruitment, ecological interactions, larval dispersal and connectivity, larval adaptations and evolution, larval rearing and aquaculture, and climate change and ocean acidification.
