Applicability of environmental DNA metabarcoding for the hyporheic zone of a stream bed

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 6, Page 1667-1678, November 2023., 2023
To understand whole riverine biodiversity, including hyporheric zones, it is necessary to develop a method to easily and accurately detect hyporheos communities in hyporheic zones, which currently remains poorly understood. Using eDNA metabarcoding for cytochrome‐c oxidase subunit I (COI) regions, we successfully detected various hyporheos and benthos ...

TransPi—a comprehensive TRanscriptome ANalysiS PIpeline for de novo transcriptome assembly

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 22, Issue 5, Page 2070-2086, July 2022., 2022
Abstract The use of RNA sequencing (RNA‐Seq) data and the generation of de novo transcriptome assemblies have been pivotal for studies in ecology and evolution. This is especially true for nonmodel organisms, where no genome information is available.

Long‐term acclimation might enhance the growth and competitive ability of Microcystis aeruginosa in warm environments

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 67, Issue 4, Page 589-602, April 2022., 2022
Abstract The positive effect of global warming on the growth of cyanobacteria has been widely predicted, but long‐term studies targeting their adaptive potential to higher temperature have not been carried out so far. Predicting the magnitude and impact of cyanobacterial blooms in the future as a response to global warming requires an understanding of ...

Reproductive organs and spermatogenesis of the peculiar spermatozoa of the genus Kryptodasys (Gastrotricha, Macrodasyida), with an appraisal of the occurrence and origin of the tail‐less spermatozoa in Gastrotricha

open access: yesJournal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 59, Issue 8, Page 1673-1688, November 2021., 2021
Aflagellate spermatozoa in two species of Kryptodasys are reported. Their ultrastructure shows common features, which appear peculiar to the genus and different from those of male gametes of Dolichodasys, the only other macrodasyidan genus known to have aflagellate sperm.

Seasonal turnover in community composition of stream‐associated macroinvertebrates inferred from freshwater environmental DNA metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 861-876, July 2021., 2021
Macroinvertebrate communities are crucial for biodiversity monitoring and assessment of ecological status in stream ecosystems. Here, we use environmental DNA metabarcoding of filtered water samples collected in both spring and autumn from five streams in Denmark to address seasonal turnover in community composition of stream macroinvertebrates.

Italian marine Gastrotricha: I. Six new and one redescribed species of Chaetonotida [PDF]

open access: bronzeBolletino di zoologia, 1992
Abstract The species Chaetonotus lacunosus Mock, 1979 is redescribed and refigured from specimens collected in littoral and shallow sublit‐toral sediments along the entire Italian coastline of the Mediterranean Sea and its adjacent waters. Six species new to science are described and figured: Chaetonotus apechochaetus, C. apolemmus, C.

From saline to salty? Heterolepidoderma sinus (Chaetonotida, Chaetonotidae) from subsaline coal mine settling ponds 

open access: goldZootaxa, 2019
Gastrotrichs are a permanent and common element of meiofauna communities. They inhabit wide range of aquatic and semi-aquatic niches, including a variety of anthropogenic habitats, such as the sand filters of a cold marine mesocosm (Parent et al. 2001) or palm houses (e.g. Kolicka et al. 2013), and extreme natural habitats like hot springs (Guerne 1888)

A Comparison of Intertidal Metazoan Biodiversity Between Previously Oiled Sheared and Intact Marsh Margins and Between Multiple Salinity Zones in the Coastal Marshes of Louisiana [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Marshes in Louisiana are under threat from numerous natural and anthropogenic sources. A consequence of these threats are sheared marsh margins, which result from the impact of storm surge on previously oiled, weakened marsh. These conditions occurred in

A new marine gastrotrich from the State of São Paulo (Brazil), with a key to species of Pseudostomella (Gastrotricha, Thaumastodermatidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In previous papers, faunistic and preliminary taxonomic data on the gastrotrich communities along the coastline of the Brazilian states of São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro were reported; among the over 40 records, the occurrence of several species new to ...
