Pesticide‐mediated trophic cascade and an ecological trap for mosquitoes

Ecosphere, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2018., 2018
Abstract Broad‐spectrum pesticides can have immediate toxic effects both on target pest species and on non‐target species. They may also have positive residual effects on mosquitoes after pesticide degradation, by altering the community structure, that is, by reducing abundances of mosquito competitors and predators, and via a trophic cascade, which ...

The palaeobiological significance of clustering in acritarchs: a case study from the early Cambrian of North Greenland

Palaeontology, Volume 67, Issue 5, September/October 2024.
Abstract Aggregated clusters of acritarchs are relatively common among assemblages of organic‐walled microfossils, yet such associations have received relatively little attention. Here we report a new diversity of acritarch clusters from the early Cambrian Buen Formation of North Greenland.

Recent developments and challenges in algal protein and peptide extraction strategies, functional and technological properties, bioaccessibility, and commercial applications

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 23, Issue 3, May 2024.
Abstract The burgeoning demand for protein, exacerbated by population growth and recent disruptions in the food supply chain, has prompted a rapid exploration of sustainable protein alternatives. Among these alternatives, algae stand out for their environmental benefits, rapid growth, and rich protein content.

Algal‐ and soil‐derived dissolved organic matter shapes bacteria‐phytoplankton interactions in a high‐altitude lake

Freshwater Biology, Volume 69, Issue 4, Page 509-526, April 2024.
Abstract Allochthonous and autochthonous dissolved organic matter (DOM) and nutrient availability (nitrogen [N], phosphorus [P]) are expected to increase in lakes as a consequence of climate change. These increases can alter the planktonic food web, especially in oligotrophic systems.

Influence of environmental parameters on the community structure of phytoplankton from river confluence of Cuddalore, Tamil Nadu, India

Environmental Advances, 2022
River ecosystems are widespread across the landscape through series of channels ultimately draining into the sea. Several theoretical models have provided coalescing concepts about ecosystem and biodiversity.

Reynolds phytoplankton functional classification approach helps evaluate the historical ecological status of the large European Southern Bug River (Ukraine)

Ecological Research, Volume 39, Issue 1, Page 97-111, January 2024.
Our manuscript applies the phytoplankton functional group (FG) classification sensu Reynolds, which enables to assess the ecological status of rivers, known as the Q(r) compositional index. Despite of its widespread application, it has never been applied to historical data.

Light Influences the Growth, Pigment Synthesis, Photosynthesis Capacity, and Antioxidant Activities in Scenedesmus falcatus

Scientifica, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Light plays a significant role in microalgae cultivation, significantly influencing critical parameters, including biomass production, pigment content, and the accumulation of metabolic compounds. This study was intricately designed to optimize light intensities, explicitly targeting enhancing growth, pigmentation, and antioxidative properties in the ...
