Rotifers perform key functions in aquatic food webs and respond to environmental changes, thus providing sensitive indicators of water quality. However, rotifers are small, highly diverse, and difficult to identify for those lacking expertise. Monogononta are the largest taxonomic class of rotifers with over 1500 species described globally, and around ...

ABSTRACT The pattern of flow or hydrological connection between a river's main channel and its floodplain can vary seasonally and spatially in frequency, duration, direction, and magnitude. Such variation is expected to promote habitat and biotic diversity.

Biodiversity in mountain soils above the treeline
ABSTRACT Biological diversity in mountain ecosystems has been increasingly studied over the last decade. This is also the case for mountain soils, but no study to date has provided an overall synthesis of the current state of knowledge. Here we fill this gap with a first global analysis of published research on cryptogams, microorganisms, and fauna in ...

Phylogenomics of unusual histone H2A Variants in Bdelloid rotifers. [PDF]
Rotifers of Class Bdelloidea are remarkable in having evolved for millions of years, apparently without males and meiosis. In addition, they are unusually resistant to desiccation and ionizing radiation and are able to repair hundreds of radiation ...

ABSTRACT Only recently the under‐ice period is recognised as a time of plankton activity. However, most studies on under‐ice zooplankton focus on low‐land lakes over relatively short temporal scales; long‐term under‐ice zooplankton dynamics in mountain lakes remain largely unknown. We compared the under‐ice zooplankton community (one sampling per year;
