Co-encapsulation of Daphnia magna and microalgae in silica matrices, a stepping stone toward a portable microcosm [PDF]
, 2014 We report on the first silica encapsulation of a metazoan (Daphnia magna), with a high initial viability (96% of the population remained active 48 h after encapsulation).

Lichen and Its Microbiome as an Untapped Source of Anti‐Biofilm Compounds
Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.Lichens and their associated fungi give rise to the evaluation of several extracts and compounds against biofilms. ABSTRACT Lichen substances have been first described in the 1870s, and around 10 000 compounds have been isolated and characterized. Most of them have been evaluated for their activity on planktonic microorganisms (bacteria and fungi ...

Synchronous dynamics of zooplankton competitors prevail in temperate lake ecosystems [PDF]
, 2014 Although competing species are expected to exhibit compensatory dynamics (negative temporal covariation), empirical work has demonstrated that competitive communities often exhibit synchronous dynamics (positive temporal covariation). This has led to the

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.. The Bebedero tectonic depression in San Luis province, Argentina, is a closed drainage basin that has formed as a result of block‐faulting and rifting processes. The Bebedero lake exhibits notable similarities to the endorheic watersheds of the western United States, particularly those of Death Valley, the Saline Valley and, to a lesser extent, the ...

Swarm Hunting and Clusters Turning Inside Out in Chemically Communicating Active Mixtures [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 A large variety of microorganisms produce molecules to communicate via complex signaling mechanisms such as quorum sensing and chemotaxis. The biological diversity is enormous, but synthetic inanimate colloidal microswimmers mimic microbiological communication (synthetic chemotaxis) and may be used to explore collective behaviour beyond the one-species

Polyphemus pediculus (L.) (Cladocera) as a possible indicator of water quality [PDF]
, 1980 Usually stenobiotic species are used as hydrobiological indicators of the degree of pollution in natural waters. Cladocera are eurybiotic organisms, therefore their role as specific indicators of the water quality is considered to be insignificant ...

Lacustrine and fan‐delta sediments in syn‐rift lake basins
The Depositional Record, EarlyView.A consistent model for the sequence framework and depositional pattern of asymmetric half‐grabens in syn‐rift lake basins bounded by active faults has been established, complementing existing models for marine rift successions. Syn‐rift lake basins are characterised by relatively small dimensions, steep slopes, poorly developed shoreline strata ...

Impoundment Effects on Water Quality as Reflected in Parasitism of Reservoir Basses [PDF]
, 1971 Our aquatic environments are rapidly becoming useless as natural resources through pollution from various sources. It is therefore necessary for us to further understand the various means which relate to this process.

Temperature sensitivity of the pyloric neuromuscular system and its modulation by dopamine [PDF]
, 2013 We report here the effects of temperature on the p1 neuromuscular system of the stomatogastric system of the lobster (Panulirus interruptus). Muscle force generation, in response to both the spontaneously rhythmic in vitro pyloric network neural activity

Antiviral immunity in crustaceans
Fish & Shellfish Immunology, 2009 Viral diseases of shrimp have caused negative effects on the economy in several countries in Asia, South America and America, where they have numerous shrimp culture industries. The studies on the immunity of shrimp and other crustaceans have mainly focused on general aspects of immunity and as a consequence little is known about the antiviral ...
