Nature of the Metamorphic Signal and its Internal Transduction in Larvae of the Nudibranch Phestilla Sibogae

The veliger larvae of the coral-eating nudibranch mollusc Phestilla sibogae have provided an excellent model for the study of chemical-induction of metamorphosis. They metamorphose only in response to a water-soluble metabolite that escapes from the coral prey of the adult nudibranchs. Metamorphosis...
