Effect of post-harvest practices on greenhouse gas emissions in rice paddies: flooding regime and straw management
(Springer, 2022-03-22)
Aims
To assess 1) the effect of the combination of flooding (winter flooding vs. non-winter flooding; WFL vs NWF) and timing of straw incorporation (early vs late straw incorporation; ESI vs LSI) in ...
Agricultural policies against invasive species generate contrasting outcomes for climate change mitigation and biodiversity conservation
(The Royal Society, 2022-10-19)
Direct consequences of biological invasions on biodiversity and the environment have been largely documented. Yet collateral indirect effects mediated by changes in agri-environmental policies aimed at ...
Cell immunolocalization of ciguatoxin-like compounds in the benthic dinoflagellate Gambierdiscus australes M. Chinain & M.A. Faust by confocal microscopy
(Elsevier, 2022-11-23)
Dinoflagellates of the genera Gambierdiscus and Fukuyoa are able to produce potent neurotoxins like ciguatoxins (CTXs), which, after biooxidation in fish, are responsible for ciguatera intoxication. An ...
Assessment of marine benthic diatom communities: insights from a combined morphological–metabarcoding approach in Mediterranean shallow coastal waters
(Elsevier, 2022-01-18)
We investigated the advantages and disadvantages of light microscope (LM)-based identifications and DNA metabarcoding, based on a 312-bp rbcL marker, for examining benthic diatom communities from ...
The presence of Dolomedes plantarius (Clerck, 1757) (Araneae: Pisauridae) in the Ebro Delta extends its distribution in the Iberian Peninsula southwards
(Asociación Ibérica de Limnología, 2022)
The presence of Dolomedes plantarius (Clerck, 1757) (Araneae: Pisauridae) in the Ebro Delta extends its distribution in the Iberian Peninsula southwards.
The rare Dolomedes plantarius has been observed ...
Ecosystem-level effects of re-oligotrophication and N:P imbalances in rivers and estuaries on a global scale
(Wiley, 2022-11-11)
Trends and ecological consequences of phosphorus (P) decline and increasing nitrogen (N) to phosphorus (N:P) ratios in rivers and estuaries are reviewed and discussed. Results suggest that re-oligotrophication ...
Wide-Geographic and Long-Term Analysis of the Role of Pathogens in the Decline of Pinna nobilis to Critically Endangered Species
(Frontiers Media, 2022-03-17)
A mass mortality event (MME) affecting the fan mussel Pinna nobilis was first detected in Spain in autumn 2016 and spread north- and eastward through the Mediterranean Sea. Various pathogens have been ...
Tropical South America Diatom Database: a tool for studying the macroecology of microorganisms
(Taylor and Francis, 2022-06-28)
Determining the mechanisms of community assembly forms the foundation of biogeography and community ecology. Studies of the biodiversity and distribution of Neotropical macro-organisms have revealed the ...
Phylotranscriptomics reveals the reticulate evolutionary history of a widespread diatom species complex
(Wiley, 2022-07-21)
In contrast to surveys based on a few genes that often provide limited taxonomic resolution, transcriptomes provide a wealth of genomic loci that can resolve relationships among taxonomically challenging ...
Ciguatoxin Detection in Flesh and Liver of Relevant Fish Species from the Canary Islands
(MDPI, 2022-01-09)
The Canary Islands are a ciguatoxin (CTX) hotspot with an established official monitoring for the detection of CTX in fish flesh from the authorised points of first sale. Fish caught by recreational ...
