Prey preference in a kleptoplastic dinoflagellate is linked to photosynthetic performance
(Springer Nature, 2023-06-30)
Dinoflagellates of the family Kryptoperidiniaceae, known as “dinotoms”, possess diatom-derived endosymbionts and contain individuals at three successive evolutionary stages: a transiently maintained ...
Effects of water pollution and river fragmentation on population genetic structure of invasive mosquitofish
(Elsevier, 2018-05-22)
We analyzed variation at the GPI-2 locus and eleven microsatellite loci of eastern mosquitofish Gambusia holbrooki populations introduced to the Ebro River (Spain), sampling above and below a dam (Flix ...
Effects of the application of a moderate alternate wetting and drying technique on the performance of different European varieties in Northern Italy rice system
(Elsevier, 2021-07-03)
Alternate wetting and drying (AWD) technique has been developed and evaluated on rice (Oryza sativa) systems in several countries worldwide for increasing water use efficiency and reducing negative ...
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 ...
Environmental controls on carbon sequestration, sediment accretion, and elevation change in the Ebro River Delta: Implications for wetland restoration
(Elsevier, 2019-03-26)
Delta wetlands are increasingly recognized as important sinks for ‘blue carbon,’ although this and other ecosystem services that deltas provide are threatened by human activities. We investigated factors ...
Seagrass epiphytic assemblages are strong indicators of agricultural discharge but weak indicators of host features
(Elsevier, 2018-03-02)
Wastewater pulses from rice agriculture are persistently discharged into the northern shore of the Alfacs Bay (Ebro Delta, NW Mediterranean) from April to November. The bay also receives water from ...
Distribution, identification and cytotoxicity of Gambierdiscus (Dinophyceae) in the Atlantic Selvagens Islands (Madeira, Portugal): a ciguatera gateway to Europe
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2022-07-18)
The emerging threat of ciguatera poisoning (CP) in Europe has been associated with fish captured in the Canary Islands (Spain) and Selvagens Islands (Portugal). The first are heavily populated islands ...
Prism substructures in the shell of Pinna nobilis (Linnaeus, 1758), Mollusca – Evidence for a three-dimensional pulsed-growth model
(Elsevier, 2020-07-20)
In the shells of the Pelecypods belonging to the Pinnidae family, the calcareous prismatic units of the outer layer are long-standing references for biomineralization studies. To elucidate how the ...
