来自土耳其黑海地区的研究人员针对入侵物种红螺(Rapana venosa)的种群管理难题，创新性采用耳石(statoliths)年龄鉴定技术，通过比较逻辑斯蒂、Gompertz、渐近指数和von Bertalanffy四种生长模型，首次建立该物种在土耳其海域的年龄-壳长关系模型。研究发现生长曲线无显著性别二态性，但存在时空异质性 ...

The positional transmitter of statoliths unveiled: It keeps plants from getting lazy. ScienceDaily . Retrieved June 2, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2023 / 08 / 230810141032.htm ...

The research, titled “ Cell polarity linked to gravity sensing is generated by LZY translocation from statoliths to the plasma membrane,” is now available online in Science ahead of print.

Statoliths move and flow no matter how the cell is angled. The surface of the statolith piles always settles into a horizontal plane, just like a liquid.

Statocytes contain numerous starch-rich granules called statoliths, which tumble in response to changes in inclination as the plant moves one way or another, much like beads in a jar.

Statoliths move and flow no matter how the cell is angled. The surface of the statolith piles always settles into a horizontal plane, just like a liquid. But how do cells make these piles so fluid?

Statoliths are made out of a form of calcium carbonate called aragonite. Because they are inside the squid, Mooney and his fellow researchers were unsure whether they would be affected by the ...

The statoliths are calcium crystals that sit inside a side, the interior of which is coated in sensory hairs. The movement of the statolith inside the pocket informs the jellyfish which way is up ...

There are specialized parts of some cells called statoliths, which occur, for instance, in plant root cells, which need to know which direction to travel---in this case, down into the ground. The cell ...
