Substrate‐Dependent Variation in Environmental DNA Persistence and Degradation From a Small Mammal

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 7, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) analyses have been applied to terrestrial environments for over a decade, yet knowledge of the dynamics of eDNA deposition, movement and degradation remains limited. To address this, we conducted a controlled experiment over 1 year to assess the persistence of eDNA from an arboreal mammal across four substrates (water,

The appropriate dietary methionine content reduces deamination and gluconeogenesis in Chinese perch (Siniperca chuatsi)

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract This study evaluated the effects of different dietary methionine (Met) levels on the feeding, growth, and protein metabolism of Chinese perch, Siniperca chuatsi. Six diets containing graded levels of Met (0.88%, 1.11%, 1.68%, 2.02%, 2.27%, and 2.72%) were fed to fish (initial weight: 13.74 ± 0.12 g) for 8 weeks.

Exploring the significance of Kenya's indigenous and emerging blue foods for sustainable aquaculture development. A review

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Kenya's aquaculture sector is at a pivotal stage, transitioning from a historical reliance on Nile tilapia and African catfish toward a more diversified production portfolio that integrates indigenous and emerging freshwater and marine species. This shift is increasingly recognized as essential to enhance climate resilience, food security, and

Hierarchical Assembly as a Design Principle: Structure–Property Relationships Linking Biological Architectures to Functional Aggregate Materials

Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 9, September 2026.
Biological function arises from aggregates rather than from molecules. Comparing biomimetic systems on a common basis reveals three transferable design rules governing hierarchical assembly, interfacial gradients, and stimulus‐coupled anisotropy, and identifies self‐healing and single‐step multiscale integration as properties that do not transfer to ...

Native and Invasive Crayfish Species Impact on the Development of Fire Salamander Larvae: A Pilot Field Study From Northern Italy

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT In northern Italy, the ongoing spread of non‐native red‐swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii keeps indirectly decimating native populations of white‐clawed crayfish Austropotamobius pallipes complex and is now also threatening local amphibians adapted to slow‐flowing, hilly streams at the borders of its distribution.

In‐vitro puncture experiment using alligator teeth tracks the formation of dental microwear and its association with hardness of the diet

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 9, Page 2424-2441, September 2026.
Abstract With the development of dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA), there has been an increasing application of DMTA for dietary estimation in extant and fossil reptiles, including dinosaurs. While numerous feeding experiments exist for herbivorous mammals, knowledge remains limited for carnivorous reptiles. This study aimed to qualitatively and

Effects of Small Hydropower Dam Removal on Food Web Structures in the Heishui River

Fishes
Following Yangtze River protection policies, many small dams have been removed. Using the Heishui River as an example, we compared food web structures among areas affected by dams (DAs), areas from which dams were removed (DRAs), and natural reference ...
