Comparative feeding behaviour of Penaeus kerathurus (Forskål, 1775) (Crustacea, Penaeidae) and Palaemon Serratus (Pennant, 1777) (Crustacea, Palaemonidae) during larval development

Ciencias Marinas, 2001
Aspects of larval feeding of two autochthonous species of shrimp, Penaeus kerathurus (Forskål, 1775) and Palaemon serratus (Pennant, 1777), were studied. For P. kerathurus, feeding rates on Chlorella sp. and Isochrysis galbana Parke were determined at 3

Intercalibration of ecotoxicity testing protocols with Artemia franciscana

Ecological Indicators, 2015
The brine shrimp, Artemia spp., is widely used in ecotoxicology as a target biological model. Although several protocols were available in the early 1980s, only the 24-h acute mortality toxicity test was evaluated in a European intercalibration exercise during that period.

Competitive Interactions Between Generalist Predators and Their Effects on Shared and Non‐Shared Pests in a Greenhouse Crop

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
Orius laevigatus engages in unidirectional intraguild predation on Transeius montdorensis. Despite this, both predators coexisted and suppressed the shared thrips prey. Aphids, a non‐shared prey, were effectively controlled by O. laevigatus even when its population was limited due to intraguild predation. T.

Pd(II) Complexes of Schiff Base Ligands Derived From 4‐Aminoantipyrine: Synthesis, Characterization, Crystal Structure and Acute Toxicity Evaluation

ChemistrySelect, Volume 11, Issue 1, 8 January 2026.
Palladium(II) complexes (1–6) with Schiff bases (HL1–HL6) were synthesized and characterized using different spectroscopic methods. The molecular structures of ligands HL1, HL3, HL6 and complexes 1, 2, 3, 6 were determined by X‐ray diffraction analysis. The toxicity of the compounds was assessed on both plant and animal cells.

Ecotoxicology of Mercerized Cellulose–Treated Tannery Effluents Using Salvinia auriculata (Salviniaceae) as a Bioindicator

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 40, Issue 12, Page 1358-1374, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Given the growing concern over the environmental impacts of industrial effluents, particularly from tanneries, assessing the ecotoxicological risks associated with these effluents, even after remediation treatments, is crucial. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the potential effects of exposure to raw and treated tannery effluents with ...

Sexual conflict as a constraint on asexual reproduction: an empirical review

Biological Reviews, Volume 100, Issue 6, Page 2681-2706, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Theory predicts that facultatively asexual animals, which can leverage the advantages of both sexual and asexual reproduction, should outcompete obligately sexual and obligately asexual animals. Yet, paradoxically, obligate sexual reproduction predominates in many animal lineages, while the most flexible form of facultative asexuality (i.e ...

Specific quorum sensing-disrupting activity (A(QSI)) of thiophenones and their therapeutic potential [PDF]

, 2015
Disease caused by antibiotic resistant pathogens is becoming a serious problem, both in human and veterinary medicine. The inhibition of quorum sensing, bacterial cell-to-cell communication, is a promising alternative strategy to control disease. In this

Current Status and Production Trends of Commercially Cultured Mariculture Species Along the Kenyan Coast: Challenges, Opportunities and Future Prospects

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Mariculture holds significant promise for enhancing food security, blue economy development and climate‐resilient livelihoods along Kenya's 640 km coastline. This review synthesises over two decades of empirical and grey literature to examine the current status, production trends, challenges and future prospects of commercially cultured ...
