A lectin of a non-invasive apple snail as an egg defense against predation alters the rat gut morphophysiology
The eggs of the freshwater Pomacea apple snails develop above the water level, exposed to varied physical and biological stressors. Their high hatching success seems to be linked to their proteins or perivitellins, which surround the developing embryo providing nutrients, sunscreens and varied defen...
