Intracellular Structures of Prokaryotes: Inclusions, Compartments and Assemblages☆
Discrete structures found within the cytoplasm of the prokaryotic cell (in one case in the periplasm) represent certain aspects of an organism’s metabolic capability. The structures, varying in size, shape, content, and architecture, are either naked or surrounded with a barrier, for example, a protein shell or coat, a lipid monolayer, a protein-lipid ...

Environmental structure affects taxonomic diversity but not functional structure of understory birds in the southwestern Brazilian Amazon [PDF]
Changes in environmental characteristics can affect habitat use by birds, impacting the number of individuals, number of species, and changing species composition and functional structure of assemblages.

Sampling a Littoral Fish Assemblage: Comparison of Small-Mesh Fyke Netting and Boat Electrofishing
We compared small-mesh (4-mm) fyke netting and boat electrofishing for sampling a littoral fish assemblage in Muskegon Lake, Michigan. We hypothesized that fyke netting selects for small-bodied fishes and electrofishing selects for large-bodied fishes ...

Comparing lacustrine environments: the importance of the kind of habitat on the structure of fishes
Aim Fish diversity in two lentic environments: a lake connected (Barbosa lake) to a river and an artificial reservoir (Ninfeias reservoir) were determined in the dry and rainy periods in 2015. We expected to find more diversity in the connected lake and

Ground beetle assemblages (Coleoptera, Carabidae) of the Krasiborska Kępa reserve
The study was carried out from the beginning of June to the end of July 2005 in the Krasiborska Kępa reserve (UTM VV56; 53.848°N, 14.370°E). Three research plots were established, representing various types of use of reedy areas: an unused reedy ...

Apparent competition structures ecological assemblages
Competition is a major force in structuring ecological communities1. It acts directly2 or indirectly, in which case it may be mediated by shared natural enemies and is known as ‘apparent competition’3,4,5,6. The effects of apparent competition on species coexistence are well known theoretically7,8 but have not previously been demonstrated empirically ...

Temporal and spatial changes in macrozoobenthos diversity in Poyang Lake Basin, China
Poyang Lake plays a significant role in maintaining and replenishing the macrozoobenthos biodiversity in the middle Yangtze River. However, due to human activities and natural factors, the habitat of Poyang Lake has been seriously degraded, resulting in ...
