Review: Diapause in Crustaceans and its Ecological and Biogeographical Implications: An Example from Patagonian Ephemeral Pools

The production of diapause eggs is a strategy for survival adopted by microcrustaceans living under adverse environments. This strategy also, aids dispersion and colonization in new environments. In the long term, this colonization process can enhanced genetic isolation as the first step in the proc...
