Safety of Rhizomucor pusillus biomass powder as a novel food pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283

EFSA Journal, Volume 23, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Following a request from the European Commission, the EFSA Panel on Nutrition, Novel Foods and Food Allergens (NDA) was asked to deliver an opinion on the safety of the Rhizomucor pusillus biomass powder as a novel food (NF) pursuant to Regulation (EU) 2015/2283. The NF is a filamentous fungus biomass powder. The novel food is intended for use

Urban Ponds and the Emerging Role of Garden Ponds: Ecosystem Services and Disservices, Multifunctionality, and Trade‐Offs

WIREs Water, Volume 12, Issue 6, November/December 2025.
Urban ponds and garden ponds—a specific subset of the former, usually located in private gardens—are both typical examples of ponds in the urban landscape. They deliver multiple ecosystem services but can also contribute to ecosystem disservices. The role of garden ponds is largely unknown compared to other urban ponds.

The Red Alien vs. the Blue Destructor: The Eradication of Cherax destructor by Procambarus clarkii in Latium (Central Italy)

Diversity, 2018
Cherax destructor is a crayfish endemic to south-eastern Australia and one of the last alien crayfish to be introduced in Italy. In the Laghi di Ninfa Natural Reserve (Latium region, Central Italy), the species was probably introduced in 1999, but only ...

Timing and quantifying Aphanomyces astaci sporulation from the noble crayfish suffering from the crayfish plague

Veterinary Microbiology, 2013
Aphanomyces astaci sporulation is crucial for the spreading potential of this disease agent. For the first time, we are reporting timing and quantity of A. astaci spores released from noble crayfish (Astacus astacus) suffering from crayfish plague under practical aquatic conditions. We infected nine noble crayfish with A.

Chitin Soil Amendment Triggers Systemic Plant Disease Resistance Through Enhanced Pattern‐Triggered Immunity

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 11, Page 5032-5044, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Chitin triggers localised and systemic plant immune responses, making it a promising treatment for sustainable disease resistance. However, the precise molecular mechanisms underlying chitin‐induced systemic effects in plants remain unknown. In this study, we investigated the effects of soil amendment with crab chitin flakes (hereafter chitin)

Statutory protection of freshwater flora and fauna [PDF]

, 1992
The aim of this paper is to summarize the present legislation aimed at protecting freshwater species in Britain, and briefly to review its effectiveness. Some areas have been deliberately omitted, such as fisheries legislation designed to conserve stocks,

Interdisciplinarity to reconstruct historical introductions: solving the status of cryptogenic crayfish [PDF]

, 2017
Anciently introduced species can be confounded with native species because introduction pre-dates the first species inventories or because of the loss of the collective memory of the introductions.

What Are We Protecting? On the Silent Arrival of Anodonta cygnea to Spain

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
A living population of the bivalve Anodonta cygnea is reported in Catalonia, Spain, based on molecular and morphological analyses, that is, an integrative taxonomy approach. A comparison with a nearby population in southern France identified the latter as A.

UNDERSTANDING AND MANAGING BIODIVERSITY IN RELATION TO NATIVE CRAYFISH POPULATIONS IN EUROPE

Knowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2003
The loss or diminution of European crayfish populations because of both habitat deterioration and competition with alien crayfish – also responsible for the dissemination of the crayfish plague – would reduce the biodiversity at the species level.

AraC‐Family Transcriptional Regulator WhpR Controls Virulence in Pseudomonas savastanoi pv. savastanoi Through Regulation of Indole Metabolism

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 10, October 2025.
The WHOP genomic island of Pseudomonas syringae complex pathogens integrates indole degradation, multicellular behaviour, fitness and virulence regulation in woody hosts. We propose that the ipoABC and dhoAB operons mediate indole catabolism to anthranilate, which is channeled into the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA).
