Natural Biota’s Contribution to Cultured Aquatic Animals’ Growth in Aquaculture Cannot Be Ignored

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
The rapid expansion of the aquaculture industry is accompanied by high organic and nutrient loadings from formulated feeds. This leads to water deterioration and pathogenic microorganisms. Natural biota (e.g., bacteria, phytoplankton, zooplankton, and zoobenthos) in ponds form important parts of cultured aquatic animals’ diets.

Conservation genetics study of huchen in Slovenia recommends river system‐based management and indicates self‐sustainability of the middle Sava population

open access: yesAquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 32, Issue 7, Page 1171-1183, July 2022., 2022
Abstract The middle part of the Sava River in Slovenia provides one of the longest free‐flowing habitats for huchen, a threatened species that is also protected by the European Habitats Directive. However, there are plans for the construction of a chain of hydropower plants along this stretch of river.

Cytology, function and dynamics of stem and progenitor cells in decapod crustaceans

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 2, Page 817-850, April 2022., 2022
ABSTRACT Stem cells play key roles in development, tissue homeostasis, regeneration, ageing and diseases. Comprehensive reviews on stem cells are available for the determinately growing mammals and insects and some lower invertebrates like hydra but are rare for larger, indeterminately growing invertebrates that can live for many decades.

The amount of environmental DNA increases with freshwater crayfish density and over time

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 417-424, March 2022., 2022
Although several assays for the detection of freshwater crayfish have been published, comparably little is known on the relationship between eDNA concentration and crayfish population densities, a pre‐requisite for estimating population size from eDNA measurements.

DISTRIBUTION AND REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY OF AUSTROPOTAMOBIUS TORRENTIUM IN BAVARIA AND DOCUMENTATION OF A CONTACT ZONE WITH THE ALIEN CRAYFISH PACIFASTACUS LENIUSCULUS

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2005
In Bavarian freshwater systems, the stone crayfish Austropotamobius torrentium is still present in many headwaters of Danubian tributaries. Since the 1960s an alien species, the signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus, was introduced several times ...
