In the present study we tested the response of three species of seaurchins to excess K+ in seawater as an artificial inducer. Excess K+ in seawater was presented to the larvae as continuous (24 h) orpulse exposure in concentrations ranging from 0.01 to 100 mM.

La utilización de inductores artificiales es una práctica común para inducir la metamorfosis en larvas de invertebrados marinos. Potasio (K+) en exceso y Cs+ en el agua de mar, han demostrado ser muy efectivos para estos propósitos, pero no universalmente efectivos para inducir la metamorfosis en diversos fila de invertebrados marinos. En el presente estudio, se puso a prueba la respuesta de tres especies de erizo de mar en presencia de exceso de K+ en el agua de mar, como inductor artificial. Las larvas fueron expuestas a un exceso de K+ en el agua de mar en forma continua (24 h) o en pulsos de concentraciones de 0.01 a 100 mM. Los resultados mostraron que el exceso de K+ agregado al agua de mar en forma de KCl fue un inductor efectivo para las tres especies de erizo, el erizo morado Strongylocentrotus purpuratus, el rojo S. franciscanus y el blanco Lytechinus pictus. La respuesta fue en función de la concentración y el tiempo de exposición. Las larvas de las tres especies murieron cuando fueron expuestas en forma continua (24 h o más) al exceso de K+ (100 mM). La exposición a un exceso de K+ (100 mM) por 15 minutos resultó la forma más efectiva para inducir la metamorfosis en las tres especies. Este método de inducción permite la obtención de poslarvas que se metamorfizan en forma sincrónica, y resulta útil para fines acuaculturales o para estudios relacionados con rutas de transducción y expresión genética durante la metamorfosis de erizos de mar.
