Biocontrol for Shrimp Disease: Comprehensive Review and a Bacterial Disease Biocontrol Practice

open access: yesReviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Biocontrol is a key strategy for disease control, as it is environmentally friendly and widely applicable. This review elaborates on biocontrol in aquaculture, particularly in shrimp culture. Biocontrol in shrimp culture mainly relies on four strategies: (i) direct kill pathogen by Bdellovibrio or bacteriophages; (ii) suppression of intestinal

The Deep‐Sea Preyscapes of Mammalian Top Predators

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
Deep‐sea predator foraging is shaped by prey richness, accessibility, and density. Using eDNA and acoustics, we mapped fish and cephalopod communities across inshore‐offshore gradients around the Azores in foraging habitats of three co‐occurring deep‐diving toothed whales.

Large Extent of Convergent Evolution Towards the Double Histone Fold Revealed by Targeted Sequence and Structure Search Approach

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 94, Issue 4, Page 875-882, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Histone proteins are key players in chromatin packaging. In eukaryotes, nucleosomal cores—the DNA packaging fundamental units—are formed by composition of histone dimers. The double histone fold is a protein structure where two consecutive regions, each featuring histone fold, come together to create a histone pseudodimer. Although regarded as

A Multi‐Taxa Approach to Estuarine Biomonitoring: Assessing Vertebrate Biodiversity and Ecological Continuity Using Environmental DNA Metabarcoding in the Rance River (Brittany, France)

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
We applied eDNA metabarcoding to assess vertebrate diversity in the Rance Estuary, France, across five stations spanning marine to freshwater environments, including areas upstream and downstream of a tidal power plant dam. A total of 124 vertebrate MOTUs were detected, with community composition reflecting the estuarine gradient and species turnover ...

Morphological diet analysis of the lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus): a cleaner fish inside Newfoundland salmon sea cages

open access: yes, 2021
The lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) is a highly opportunistic cleaner fish used as a biological control in Atlantic salmon sea cages for an economically important ectoparasite, the salmon louse (Lepeophtherius salmonis). The objective of my research was to

Comparison of Environmental DNA Metabarcoding and Trawl Data Highlights Gear Selectivity of Marine Demersal Fish Surveys on the Faroese Plateau

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
The study compared trawl and eDNA metabarcoding of demersal fish communities in an open ocean environment around the Faroe Islands. eDNA provided a comparable assessment of demersal species biomass and revealed additional spatial information on keystone species known to be under‐sampled by demersal trawls due to size and behavioral traits.

Parentage analysis of commercial lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) brood stock in Newfoundland.

open access: yes, 2021
Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) are widely used in the Northern Atlantic as a biological control for the destructive parasite Lepeophtheirus salmonis (salmon louse) in the commercial Atlantic salmon sea cages.

Condition factor tailored to lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) used as cleaner fish in salmonid farms

open access: yesAquaculture Reports
Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) are extensively used as part of the control measures against salmon lice in fish farms. In recent years, there has been an increased focus on lumpfish welfare, and how to increase survival of lumpfish during production.

Vaccination and adaptive immune response of lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus L)

open access: yesFish & Shellfish Immunology, 2016
Farmed lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus L.) is with great success used for biological control of salmon louse (Lepeoptheirus salmonis). Along with the rapid increase in the farming of lumpfish in Norway bacterial disease problems has emerged. The most commonly isolated pathogenic agents are Vibrio sp., atypical Aeromonas salmonicida and Pasteurella sp.

Efecto de la alimentación en el crecimiento y actividad enzimática del lumpo (Cyclopterus lumpus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
[ES] En el presente trabajo se ha estudiado el efecto de la sustitución parcial de la harina de pescado por una mezcla de concentrado de proteínas vegetales sobre el crecimiento y las actividades de los enzimas digestivos del pez lumpo (Cyclopterus ...
