“…Hydrochemical and palaeoclimatological characteristics of the Tibet Plateau have resulted in the adaptation of A. tibetiana in a novel ecological region (Abatzopoulos et al ., ; Zhang et al ., ). In our study, A. tibetiana revealed a recent diversification in the early Pleistocene, roughly 1.21 Mya, which is mostly associated with the young geological age of different smaller saline lakes in Tibet, ranging from the Eocene to the Pleistocene (Zheng, ; Eimanifar et al ., ). The Tibet Plateau has been uplifted, according to geological and thermochronological evidence, which has eventually caused a semi‐complete geographic separation between western ( A. urmiana ) and eastern ( A. sinica ) bisexual Artemia species (Van Stappen, ; Wang et al ., ).…”

“…A peculiarity in the COI haplotype network is the observation that some individuals corresponding to haplotypes H2, H5, H7, H19, H46, H47, H48, and H50, which had been considered to be part of the EHC group (Muñoz et al, 2010;Maniatsi et al, 2011;Maccari et al, 2013;Eimanifar et al, 2014), cluster within A. urmiana. According to our network, there are four hypotheses to explain this condition.…”

“…In general we only have information on the origin of samples, and we have not checked their reproductive modes under laboratory conditions; therefore, we have now introduced the term Eurasian haplotype complex (EHC) to describe a large group of putative parthenogenetic Artemia populations sharing the same haplotype complex, which includes documented parthenogenetic populations. According to DNA analysis EHC lineages are widely distributed over Eurasia, extending from the Canary Islands to China (Maccari, Amat & Gómez, 2013;Eimanifar et al, 2014).…”

The brine shrimp Artemia represents a widespread genus of microcrustaceans adapted to hypersaline environments. The species of this genus have been the subject of numerous phylogenetic studies, but many open questions remain, especially for Eurasian Artemia lineages. Artemia sinica Cai, 1989 and Artemia tibetiana have a restricted geographical distribution, whereas the Eurasian haplotype complex (EHC) and especially Artemia urmiana Günther, 1899 show wider ranges. We examined the geographic distribution, evolutionary age, and historical demography of the Asian Artemia lineages (A. urmiana, A. sinica, A. tibetiana, and the Eurasian haplotype complex) using samples from 39 geographical localities and based on the nucleotide sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene. Asian Artemia taxa clusters into four distinctive clades with high nodal support, consisting of 69 unique haplotypes. A star‐like haplotype pattern was visible in EHC lineages (comprising pathenogenetic populations), which were genetically close to two sexual species, A. urmiana and A. tibetiana. The Bayesian approach of molecular clock estimation indicated that A. sinica had already diverged in the late Miocene (19.99 Mya), whereas A. urmiana, A. tibetiana, and EHC shared a common ancestor in the late Pliocene (5.41 Mya). Neutrality tests indicated a recent population expansion in A. urmiana and EHC lineages. The diversification within A. urmiana and EHC lineages occurred in the Pleistocene (1.72 Mya) and Holocene (0.84 Mya), respectively. Overall, these results suggest a much longer evolutionary history of A. sinica and the possible evolutionary origin of EHC lineages from Asian sexual ancestors. Our findings point to the importance of species structure and divergence time variations of Asian Artemia, highlighting interspecific diversification and range expansion of local species in Asia. © 2015 The Linnean Society of London

“…Generally, the long-distance translocations of the American species Artemia franciscana to other non-indigenous regions has occurred as a result of commercial activities which have been fully documented, previously [2,[13][14][15][16]. Artemia franciscana is a successful invader in saltwater ecosystems due to its faster filter-feeding rate, a high potential of reproduction [13,45], and a better physiological immune system which is associated with nutritional behavior against cestode parasites [13] than the native species.…”

“…Previous studies on A. franciscana have documented that invasive populations demonstrated genetic variations relative to the native American source populations [2,15,16,[19][20][21]. The low genetic diversity in the non-indigenous populations has been attributed to the founder effect [19] or population bottleneck due to the decreasing of population size in introduced populations during the process of establishment [15].…”

Due to the rapid developments in aquaculture industry, Artemia franciscana, originally an American species, has been intentionally introduced to the Eurasia, Africa and Australia. In the present study, we used a partial sequence of the mitochondrial DNA Cytochrome Oxidase subunit I (mt-DNA COI) gene and genomic fingerprinting by Inter-Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSRs) to determine the genetic variability and population structure of Artemia populations (indigenous and introduced) from 14 different geographical locations in Western Asia. Based on the haplotype spanning network, Artemia urmiana has exhibited higher genetic variation than native parthenogenetic populations. Although A. urmiana represented a completely private haplotype distribution, no apparent genetic structure was recognized among the native parthenogenetic and invasive A. franciscana populations. Our ISSR findings have documented that despite invasive populations have lower variation than source population in Great Salt Lake (Utah, USA), they have significantly revealed higher genetic variability compare to the native populations in Western Asia. According to the ISSR results, the native populations were not fully differentiated by the PCoA analysis, but the exotic A. franciscana populations were geographically divided in four genetic groups. We believe that during the colonization, invasive populations have experienced substantial genetic divergences, under new ecological conditions in the non-indigenous regions.

Artemia franciscana is a universal live feed in aquaculture, and it has been reported as an invasive species in many Asian hypersaline ecosystems. The present observations illustrated the pre‐ and postembryonic development stages of the A. franciscana population confined to the Indian saltern of Kelambakkam. We observed their growth patterns during various hydration periods with specific time intervals. Results showed differences in the development stages with respect to unique identity. Interestingly, a period of hydration showed notable cellular movement toward clockwise positions in the hydrating cysts. After 10 h of hydration, blastocoel appeared, accelerating the dynamic route of nuclei movement. At the end of the invagination, the embryo burst out of the cyst, and a sequence of emerging stages was noted. With reference to light microscopic observations, a series of developmental stages were observed, and each instar was documented by developing limb buds of nauplii. Excitingly, the 10th and 11th instar stages reveal sexual differentiation between male and female individuals. Thus, the laboratory culture study clearly documented the different developmental stages with their specific characteristic features. However, further molecular study would provide a cellular basis for understanding the early development of A. franciscana.
