Abstract
The light-dark cycle significantly impacts the growth and development of animals. Mantis shrimps (Oratosquilla oratoria) receive light through their complex photoreceptors. To reveal the adaptive expression mechanism of the mantis shrimp induced in a dark environment, we performed comparative transcriptome analysis with O. oratoria cultured in a light environment (Oo-L) as the control group and O. oratoria cultured in a dark environment (Oo-D) as the experimental group. In the screening of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the Oo-L and Oo-D groups, a total of 88 DEGs with |log2FC| > 1 and FDR < 0.05 were identified, of which 78 were upregulated and 10 were downregulated. Then, FBP1 and Pepck were downregulated in the gluconeogenesis pathway, and MKNK2 was upregulated in the MAPK classical pathway, which promoted cell proliferation and differentiation, indicating that the activity of mantis shrimp was slowed and the metabolic rate decreases in the dark environment. As a result, the energy was saved for its growth and development. At the same time, we performed gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) on all DEGs. In the KEGG pathway analysis, each metabolic pathway in the dark environment showed a slowing trend. GO was enriched in biological processes such as eye development, sensory perception and sensory organ development. The study showed that mantis shrimp slowed down metabolism in the dark, while the role of sensory organs prominent. It provides important information for further understanding the energy metabolism and has great significance to study the physiology of mantis shrimp in dark environment.

Abstract
The light environments of natural water sources have specific characteristics. For the majority of aquatic organisms, vision is crucial for predation, hiding from predators, communicating information, and reproduction. Electroretinography (ERG) is a diagnostic method used for assessing visual function. An electroretinogram records the comprehensive potential response of retinal cells under light stimuli and divides it into several components. Unique wave components are derived from different retinal cells, thus retinal function can be determined by analyzing these components. This review provides an overview of the milestones of ERG technology, describing how ERG is used to study visual sensitivity (e.g., spectral sensitivity, luminous sensitivity, and temporal resolution) of fish, crustaceans, mollusks, and other aquatic organisms (seals, sea lions, sea turtles, horseshoe crabs, and jellyfish). In addition, it describes the correlations between visual sensitivity and habitat, the variation of visual sensitivity as a function of individual growth, and the diel cycle changes of visual sensitivity. Efforts to identify the visual sensitivity of different aquatic organisms are vital to understanding the environmental plasticity of biological evolution and for directing aquaculture, marine fishery, and ecosystem management.

Dark-adaptation in the eyes of a lake and a sea population of opossum shrimp (Mysis relicta): retinoid isomer dynamics, rhodopsin regeneration, and recovery of light sensitivity. J Comp Physiol A Neuroethol Sens Neural Behav Physiol 2020; 206:871-889. [PMID: 32880702 PMCID: PMC7603447 DOI: 10.1007/s00359-020-01444-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2020] [Revised: 08/22/2020] [Accepted: 08/25/2020] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
We have studied dark-adaptation at three levels in the eyes of the crustacean Mysis relicta over 2-3 weeks after exposing initially dark-adapted animals to strong white light: regeneration of 11-cis retinal through the retinoid cycle (by HPLC), restoration of native rhodopsin in photoreceptor membranes (by MSP), and recovery of eye photosensitivity (by ERG). We compare two model populations ("Sea", Sp, and "Lake", Lp) inhabiting, respectively, a low light and an extremely dark environment. 11-cis retinal reached 60-70% of the pre-exposure levels after 2 weeks in darkness in both populations. The only significant Lp/Sp difference in the retinoid cycle was that Lp had much higher levels of retinol, both basal and light-released. In Sp, rhodopsin restoration and eye photoresponse recovery parallelled 11-cis retinal regeneration. In Lp, however, even after 3 weeks only ca. 25% of the rhabdoms studied had incorporated new rhodopsin, and eye photosensitivity showed only incipient recovery from severe depression. The absorbance spectra of the majority of the Lp rhabdoms stayed constant around 490-500 nm, consistent with metarhodopsin II dominance. We conclude that sensitivity recovery of Sp eyes was rate-limited by the regeneration of 11-cis retinal, whilst that of Lp eyes was limited by inertia in photoreceptor membrane turnover.
