Methane‐Derived Carbon Contributes to Fish Biomass in a Deep, Eutrophic Reservoir
ABSTRACT Methanotrophic bacteria oxidise large amounts of biogenic methane produced in freshwater and bind the original methane carbon in their biomass. When these bacteria are consumed by other organisms, methane‐derived carbon enters food webs. Methane‐derived carbon can support a substantial part of invertebrate biomass in some freshwater ecosystems.

Nutritional effects on the expression of cryptic pigmentation in freshwater isopods
Cryptic pigmentation is a key phenotypic adaptation that helps many benthic invertebrates evade visual predators. However, little is known about whether and how the expression of pigmentation phenotypes that match the habitat background is influenced by the availability of nutritional resources.

We designed and validated taxon‐specific metabarcoding primers for Cladocera, Copepoda and Rotifera. These primers were subsequently used to assess optimal sample preservation and DNA extraction protocols, and perform an in‐depth evaluation of key factors influencing the quantitative nature of the freshwater zooplankton metabarcoding surveys.

ABSTRACT In recent decades, rising industrial demand for palladium (Pd), driven by its unique properties and affordability compared to other noble metals, has increased its environmental release into aquatic systems. This highlights the need to assess its effects on organisms, given the lack of standardized toxicity studies and regulations for this ...

Behavioral response of cave and surface Asellus aquaticus to water current [PDF]
There are many questions regarding what influences the emergence of new species. Firstly and above all, is the appearance of differences within a certain specie, where a certain part is isolated from the group and continues its own evolution.

Carotenoids and Carotenoproteins in Asellus aquaticus L. (Crustacea: Isopoda)
Column (CC), thin-layer (TLC), high-performance liquid (HPLC) and ion-exchange chromatography (IEC), were used to investigate corotenoid and carotenoprotein complexes in Asellus aquaticus specimens from the Narew river. The following carotenoids were found: alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, beta-cryptoxanthin, lutein, zeaxanthin, diadinoxanthin ...
