(Frontiers, 2023-02-24)
Dinoflagellates belonging to the Perkinsus genus are OIE (World Organization for animal Health)-listed pathogens extremely virulent for clams and oysters in many marine ecosystems throughout the world. ...
An Updated Review of Tetrodotoxin and Its Peculiarities
(MDPI, 2022-01-03)
Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is a crystalline, weakly basic, colorless organic substance and is one of the most potent marine toxins known. Although TTX was first isolated from pufferfish, it has been found in ...
Carbon metabolic rates and GHG emissions in different wetland types of the Ebro Delta
(Public Library of Science, 2020-04-22)
Deltaic wetlands are highly productive ecosystems, which characteristically can act as C-sinks. However, they are among the most threatened ecosystems, being very vulnerable to global change, and require ...
