The Afro-Asian cyclopoid Mesocyclops aspericornis (Crustacea: Copepoda) in eastern Mexico with comments on the distribution of exotic copepods

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2011
The Afro-Asian freshwater copepod Mesocyclops aspericornis (Daday, 1906), deemed as an exotic species in the Americas, is known to occur disjunctly in Mexico, South America, and the insular Caribbean.

MAP17 Enhances Chemoresistance and Tumorigenicity of Glioblastoma‐Initiating Cells via the Canonical NF‐кB Pathway

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
MAP 17 is identified as highly expressed in TMZ‐resistant glioblastoma‐initiating cells (GICs). MAP17 enhances GIC proliferation, TMZ resistance, and tumorigenicity through NF‐κB/RELA‐dependent BCL2 upregulation. ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common malignant brain tumor in adults.

Identification of the alternative oxidase gene and its expression in the copepod Tigriopus californicus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In addition to the typical electron transport system (ETS) in animal mitochondria responsible for oxidative phosphorylation, in some species there exists an alternative oxidase (AOX) pathway capable of catalyzing the oxidation of ubiquinol and the ...

Representation of obligate groundwater‐dwelling copepod diversity in European protected areas

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Groundwaters sustain diverse surface ecosystems and are populated by metazoan species, mostly invertebrates, that provide fundamental ecological functions and are often of prominent conservation value due to narrow endemism and high phylogenetic rarity.

Phylogeny and Genetic Population Structure of Dominant Copepods in Two Ponds with Contrasting Salinities in the Solar Saltern of Sfax (Tunisia) Based on Mitochondrial (COI and Cytb) and Nuclear (18S) DNA Sequences

open access: yesDiversity
Due to the complexity of taxonomic classification based on the classical morphological characters of copepods, phylogenies have been ambiguous. In this study, we investigate the phylogeny of copepods, including four species from three orders, in the ...

Structured machine learning modeling to support conservation of deep‐sea benthic biodiversity

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs need to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable predictions. To establish a predictive monitoring program for deep‐sea benthos of the Santos Basin, Brazil, we developed a two‐stage structured model that allowed comparison of biodiversity predictions obtained from environmental simulations (2M‐Sim).

Arctic copepod copper sensitivity and comparison with Antarctic and temperate copepods

open access: yesEcotoxicology
AbstractThe ongoing global climate crisis increases temperatures in polar regions faster and with greater magnitude than elsewhere. The decline of Arctic sea ice opens up new passages, eventually leading to higher anthropogenic activities such as shipping, fishing, and mining.

The Forgotten Pink Salmon in the Laurentian Great Lakes: An Unexpected Invasion With Insights for Three Oceans

open access: yesFish and Fisheries, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introductions of species outside their native range, such as pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) in the Laurentian Great Lakes, can serve as unplanned experiments that provide new insights into ecological adaptation. We synthesize available information on the understudied Great Lakes pink salmon invasion and highlight how this case can inform

Interannual Variation in the Zooplankton Community of the North Adriatic Sea under Short-Term Climatic Anomalies

open access: yesDiversity
Zooplankton are a pivotal component of the pelagic community, and their abundance and distribution are often strongly dependent on environmental conditions at sea. However, climate change can pose significant challenges to planktonic organisms. Therefore,
