Hematopoiesis and hemocytes in pancrustacean and molluscan models

Valerie Jane Smith, Alice Accorsi, Davide Malagoli

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Chapter

Abstract

The hematopoietic districts and their organization are here described in detail for some of the principal pancrustacean and molluscan models. Pancrustaceans present an overall similar organization of hematopoietic organs, while among mollusks the hematopoietic organs and tissues are more diversified. The morphologies, functions, and main lineages of circulating hemocytes are recapitulated, and the common traits between different taxa are evidenced.
