ABSTRACT Artemia (brine shrimp) is a foundational live feed in global aquaculture, renowned for its adaptability, ease of production, and favorable nutritional profile. However, in its natural state, Artemia contains suboptimal levels of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs), particularly docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA ...

Three's a crowd: The relationship among endoparasites, an epibiont and their Daphnia host
In freshwater communities, organisms interact in a variety of ways, including predation, competition and parasitism. Parasites are ubiquitous, playing an important role in shaping freshwater communities. Endoparasites live within internal organs of their host, while ectoparasites, also known as epibionts, are confined to the external part of the host's

Impact of CO2‐Induced Aquatic Acidification on Environmental DNA and RNA Shedding and Persistence
We conducted mesocosm experiments to determine the shedding and decay rate constants of eDNA and eRNA in Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas) at various partial CO2 pressures in seawater. To our knowledge, this is the first study manipulating seawater pH using CO2.

ABSTRACT Declines in recruitment of lake whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis) in the Laurentian Great Lakes have been attributed to a reduction in the amount of zooplankton prey available to young life stages, stemming from the ecosystem effects of invasive dreissenid mussels.

ABSTRACT Diet specialisation is a main driver of diversification in many adaptive radiations. Therefore, identifying diet items is essential to characterise trophic specialisations and to understand the dynamics of dietary adaptations. In this study, we explored the trophic niches of 56 species from the adaptive radiation of cichlid fishes in Lake ...

Zoogeography of Chilean inland water crustaceans
The Chilean inland water crustaceans are characterized by a combination of endemic and cosmopolitan species: some occur throughout the territory of continental Chile, while others are restricted to specific latitudinal regions.
