Changes in the fatty acid composition of brown shrimp, Crangon crangon, after boiling

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, 2022
Brown shrimp, Crangon crangon (L.), is the most valuable target of coastal fisheries in the southern North Sea. Annual landings exceeded 30,000 tons in the last decade, yielding up to 100 Mio Euro.

β‐Aminoisobutyric Acid Alleviates Cisplatin‐Induced Muscle Atrophy by Regulating E3 Ubiquitin Ligases, Apoptosis, Amino Acid Metabolism, Autophagy, and Ferroptosis

Medicine Bulletin, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cisplatin (CIS) is a widely used broad‐spectrum anticancer agent, but its clinical application is often limited by severe adverse effects, including skeletal muscle atrophy, which compromises patients' quality of life and treatment efficacy.

Matching habitat choice could be brightness‐based instead of hue‐based in green‐brown polymorphic grasshoppers

Oikos, EarlyView.
Some prey species have evolved background matching, that is they resemble their surrounding environment in terms of colour and/or brightness. When prey populations inhabit patchy environments, they may even have evolved specialised phenotypes: each phenotype matching a specific subset of patches.

Occurrence of Penaeus aztecus, Ives, 1891 (Crustacea: Decapoda: Penaeidae) in the coastal water of Alexandria, Egypt

Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Research, 2020
A sample of 347 specimens of the northern brown shrimp Penaeus aztecus, a western Atlantic species, was collected from July 2019 to June 2020 by local bottom trawlers off two fishing areas, Abu-Qir Bay and Ma’deya, east of Alexandria Coast, Egypt.

Effects of Density and Food Availability on the Growth of Captive‐Reared Eastern Hellbenders

Zoo Biology, EarlyView.
Our experiments demonstrate that food is the major factor limiting captive‐reared Hellbender growth and that increasing rearing density to the tested levels does not negatively impact growth. Implementing these changes may result in larger, more robust Hellbenders and increase the success of reintroduction programs.

Social organization and habitat use shape the gut microbiome of a marine fish

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study provides the first evidence linking habitat use—and to a lesser extent social organization—to gut microbiome composition in a wild marine fish. The results indicate that local habitat conditions are the primary driver of microbial variation, while social effects are detectable but weak.

A preventive strategy for the control of aphids in sweet pepper using lacewings and micrococcinelid beetles

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Aphids pose a serious risk to horticultural crops. Current biocontrol strategies often fail due to the poor establishment of natural enemies when aphids are scarce. We evaluated the potential of two aphidophagous predators, Micromus variegatus and Scymnus interruptus, to be used as preventive biocontrol agents, released before aphid infestation.

Enhancement of superoxide dismutase and catalase activity in juvenile brown shrimp, Farfantepenaeus californiensis (Holmes, 1900), fed β-1.3 glucan vitamin E, and β-carotene and infected with white spot syndrome virus

Latin American Journal of Aquatic Research, 2011
The effect of dietary β-Ο-glucan, vitamin E, and β-carotene supplements in juvenile brown shrimp, Farfantepenaeus californiensis, inoculated with white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) was evaluated. Groups of 30 organisms (weighing 1 ± 0.5 g) were cultured in

The Effects of Noise on the Juvenile Life Stage of Crustaceans: Behavioral, Cellular, and Molecular Responses in Procambarus clarkii

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Juvenile Procambarus clarkii exposed to noise exhibited behavioral changes, shifts in enzymatic activity, and altered expression of stress and immune genes. The findings highlight the sensitivity of invertebrate juveniles to anthropogenic acoustic pollution.

Sensitivity of multispecies maximum sustainable yields to trends in the top (marine mammals) and bottom (primary production) compartments of the southern North Sea food-web.

PLoS ONE, 2019
In marine ecosystems, maximum sustainable yield considerations are affected by any substantial changes that occur in the top and bottom compartments of the food-web.
