Chemical Composition, Antioxidant, and Antibacterial Activities of Mezilaurus duckei (Lauraceae)

Chemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Mezilaurus duckei, a Brazilian endemic tree species found exclusively in the Amazon Rainforest, is primarily exploited for timber in construction. Due to its endangered status, this study aimed to investigate the chemical profile and biological properties of the ethanolic extract and its phases derived from M. duckei leaves. Chemical profiling

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 ...

Insights Into the Comprehensive Carbon Cycle in a Mangrove Ecosystem: A Case Study for Understanding Carbon Burial, Outgassing, and Outwelling in a Subtropical Island

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract A significant quantity of soil organic carbon (SOC) is buried in mangrove ecosystems. However, recent research has revealed that substantial amounts of carbon are exported to the atmosphere as CO2 or to the ocean as dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and particulate organic carbon (POC).

Dead Shrimp Blues: A Global Assessment of Extinction Risk in Freshwater Shrimps (Crustacea: Decapoda: Caridea) [PDF]

, 2015
We present the first global assessment of extinction risk for a major group of freshwater invertebrates, caridean shrimps. The risk of extinction for all 763 species was assessed using the IUCN Red List criteria that include geographic ranges, habitats ...

Threshold responses of floating meadow fish communities to floodplain forest cover in the lower Amazon River

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Forest cover is positively associated with fish biomass and fisheries yield in the Amazon River floodplain, and many species enter flooded forests to feed, spawn, or seek refuge from predation. Floating macrophyte beds, known as floating meadows, in Amazon floodplains support high fish diversity and serve as nursery habitat for many fishes of ...

Decapod Biodiversity Hotspots and Environmental Drivers: A Macroecological Approach About Bycatch Species in Brazil

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim To investigate the spatial patterns of species richness (SR), phylogenetic diversity (PD) and phylogenetic endemism (PE) in bycatch decapod crustaceans along the Brazilian Exclusive Economic Zone and to assess the influence of environmental variables and trawling effort on these diversity indices. Location Brazilian Exclusive Economic Zone.

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

Extreme Drought Restructures Floodplain Fish Assemblages Through Trait Convergence and Assembly Mechanism Shifts

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 31, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Extreme droughts, intensified by climate change, threaten floodplain ecosystems. However, the mechanisms underlying biotic responses remain insufficiently understood. We assessed drought‐induced changes in the taxonomic and functional structure of fish communities, identified key environmental and biotic drivers during the drought period ...
