Effect of Intensification on Grow Out of the Amazon River Prawn, Macrobrachium amazonicum

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, 2007
Abstract The effects of intensification on growth, survival, productivity, population structure, and distribution of harvested biomass in individual size classes of Macrobrachium amazonicum in semi‐intensive culture were evaluated. Postlarvae (0.01 g) were stocked in 12 ponds at densities of 10, 20, 40, and 80/m2 (three replicates per treatment) and ...

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1091-1119, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Macrobrachium amazonicum: an alternative for microbiological monitoring of aquatic environments in Brazil

Ciência Rural, 2014
This study aimed to evaluate the role of the Amazon River prawn, Macrobrachium amazonicum, as carrier of Candida spp., by analyzing the correlation between Candida spp. from these prawns and their environment (surface water and sediment), through M13-PCR

Digestive proteases from wild and farmed male morphotypes of the Amazon river prawn (Macrobrachium amazonicum) [PDF]

Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2014
The aim of this study was to characterize digestive proteases from wild and farmed morphotypes in males of Macrobrachium amazonicum (Heller, 1862). The hepatopancreas of wild and earthen pond reared specimens were collected and homogenized. Unspecific activities of trypsin, chymotrypsin and leucine aminopeptidase were determined using specific ...

Vanishing Treasures: Climate Change Steals Amazonian Coastal Livelihoods—A Cry from the Frontlines of Marajó Island

Climate Resilience and Sustainability, Volume 5, Issue 1, June 2026.
In our study, we demonstrate how climate change is degrading fisheries and forest resources in Marajó Island's coastal communities, where we found younger residents and urban‐proximate groups express the strongest concerns. We document how warming temperatures and erratic rainfall are threatening traditional livelihoods, food security, and cultural ...

Effects of ammonia and nitrite on food consumption of the Amazon River prawn Macrobrachium amazonicum (Heller, 1862) postlarvae

Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2021
Experiments were carried out to study the effects of ammonia and nitrite on food consumption of Macrobrachium amazonicum postlarvae. Postlarvae (average weight of 0.0625 g) were exposed during 21 days to four concentrations of total ammonia (0, 1.05, 2.1 and 4.2 mg. NH3+NH4+ L-1) and four concentrations of nitrite (0, 0.075, 0.15 and 0.30 mg N-NO2- L-1)

Integrating curimba culture during the grow‐out phase of tambaqui affects overall productivity, water quality, and fish health

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 3, June 2026.
Abstract The efficiency of feed use in aquaculture may be improved by integrating the culture of extractive species into fed‐species systems. This study assessed the impact of including curimba (Prochilodus lineatus) in tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) production during the grow‐out phase in earthen ponds.

Beyond Hard Parts: Metabarcoding Advances Dietary Resolution in Threatened Amazonian Elasmobranchs

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Elasmobranchs are highly vulnerable and are considered one of the most threatened vertebrates worldwide. Insights into diet can improve conservation measures. The bias of traditional morphological methods towards taxa with distinctive hard parts makes metabarcoding analysis a complementary tool to assess diet composition. Here, we analysed the
