Opportunistic Feeding and Parasite Assemblages in Sei Whales (Balaenoptera borealis) From Southern Chile Revealed by DNA Metabarcoding

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
This study represents the first metabarcoding‐based description of prey composition and parasite‐associated taxa in stranded sei whales from southern South America. ABSTRACT Balaenopterid whales are major consumers in pelagic ecosystems and play a fundamental role in marine food webs.

Microeukaryotic Diversity and Habitat Structuring in a Desiccating Alkaline Maar Lake (Central Mexico) [PDF]

J Eukaryot Microbiol
ABSTRACT Microeukaryotes are important components of microbial food webs in saline and alkaline lakes, yet their diversity and distribution across distinct microhabitats remain poorly understood. We characterized microeukaryotic communities associated with microbialites, microbial mats, hypersaline waters, and sediments in the desiccating maar lake ...

The effects of chlorophyta on the growth of submersed macrophyte Vallisneria natans: a laboratory experiment

, 2007
Shading of phytoplankton on submersed macrophytes in eutrophic waters is considered to be one of the main causes for the decline of the macrophytes. However, growth inhibition of submersed macrophyte by phytoplankton may be also due to other important ...

Marine Macroalgae as a Safe Healthy Food While Meeting Food Security Challenges Arising From Climate Changes

Food Safety and Health, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 783-804, October 2026.
Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...

Integrating and assessing metacommunity drivers of ecosystem function and resilience in benthic algal systems

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 10, October 2026.
Understanding the scales and mechanisms by which species composition interacts with ecosystem functions is critical for forecasting the effects of environmental perturbations on ecosystem services. However, the linkages between what regulates the ecosystem functions of dispersal‐capable networks of communities (metacommunities) and what regulates a ...

Phosphate Enrichment From Wildlife Inputs Shapes the Distribution and Pigmentation of Green and Red Snow Algae Along the West Antarctic Peninsula

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Snow algae darken snow through biomass accumulation and pigmentation, yet nutrient controls on algal abundance and pigment composition in Antarctic snowfields remain poorly constrained. Along the West Antarctic Peninsula (WAP), coastal snowfields receive nutrient inputs from marine and wildlife sources that may influence bloom development.

Phylogenetic analysis identifies the invertebrate pathogen Helicosporidium sp. as a green alga (Chlorophyta) [PDF]

, 2002
Historically, the invertebrate pathogens of the genus Helicosporidium were considered to be either protozoa or fungi, but the taxonomic position of this group has not been considered since 1931. Recently, a Helicosporidium sp., isolated from the blackfly
