Changes in feeding biology of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus (L.), after invasion of water hyacinth, Eichhornia crassipes (Mart.) Solms, in Lake Victoria, Kenya [PDF]

, 1999
Oreochrimis niloticus (L.) was introduced to Lake victoria in the 1950s. It remained relatively uncommon in catches until 1965, when the numbers began to increase dramatically.

Drilling the Marathousa palaeo‐lake in Greece (Peloponnese): inferring the environmental context of a Middle Pleistocene archaeological site

Boreas, EarlyView.
The Megalopolis Basin is located in the central Peloponnese (Greece), a region that is situated along one of the primary Pleistocene biogeographical corridors for intracontinental hominin migration. The basin comprises several hundred metres of Plio‐Pleistocene sediments alternating between clastics and lignites.

HSP expression in bivalves

Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2008
One of the molecular responses which mostly contribute to the physiological plasticity of bivalves is the heat shock response mediated by heat shock proteins (HSP). Variations of HSP response were observed under environmental conditions, correlated with differences in environmental temperature and degree of heterogeneity across geographic thermal ...

Reconsidering the role of introduced species in the climate‐affected and highly invaded eastern Mediterranean

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bioinvasions are considered mostly as a biodiversity and conservation hazard, but in specific situations, introduced species can bring ecological or socioeconomic benefits. We assessed the social–ecological role of marine introduced species in the eastern Mediterranean Sea—a global hotspot of bioinvasions and extirpations—and their potential ...

Bivalve immune responses and climate changes: is there a relationship? [PDF]

Invertebrate Survival Journal, 2011
Global climate changes (GCCs) are predicted to occur in the next hundred years through increases in temperature, water acidification and changes in seawater salinity. Increasing atmospheric CO2 concentrations are considered to be the main responsible for

Petrologic evidence for earliest Miocene tectonic mobility on eastern Taranaki Basin margin [PDF]

, 2006
At Gibsons Beach on the west coast of central North Island, the earliest Miocene (Waitakian) Otorohanga Limestone, the top-most formation in the Te Kuiti Group, is unconformably overlain on an undulating, locally channelised erosion surface by the Early ...

Duck Tales: Spatio‐temporal dynamics of habitat use and prey relationships of a diving duck and its implication for conservation management

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Shows the spatiotemporal predictability of wintering eiders based on monitoring data from 1993–2023 with intertidal and subtidal Marine Protected Areas (yellow and green, respectively), and a depiction of the current mismatch between eider hotspots and protection measures. Abstract Migratory animals often follow predictable spatiotemporal distributions

Molecular and Biochemical Methods Useful for the Epigenetic Characterization of Chromatin-Associated Proteins in Bivalve Molluscs

Frontiers in Physiology, 2017
Bivalve molluscs constitute a ubiquitous taxonomic group playing key functions in virtually all ecosystems, and encompassing critical commercial relevance.

Hsp70 diversification and repurposing across the tree of life: Lessons from the evolutionary and mechanistic trajectory of the Hsp70–Hsp110 chaperone system

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Evolutionary and mechanistic divergence in the Hsp70–Hsp110 chaperone system. Prokaryotic Hsp70s probably diversified into multiple orthologues that cooperated with co‐chaperones such as JDPs and NEF, forming increasingly complex proteostasis networks.

Paralytic Shellfish Toxin Extraction from Bivalve Meat for Analysis Using Potentiometric Chemical Sensors

Biosensors
A simple and reliable methodology for the detection of paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) in bivalve tissues using potentiometric chemical sensors was developed.
