Inference of Historical Population-Size Changes with Allele-Frequency Data

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2020
With up to millions of nearly neutral polymorphisms now being routinely sampled in population-genomic surveys, it is possible to estimate the site-frequency spectrum of such sites with high precision.

Comparative metagenomics of Daphnia symbionts [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2009
Abstract Background Shotgun sequences of DNA extracts from whole organisms allow a comprehensive assessment of possible symbionts. The current project makes use of four shotgun datasets from three species of the planktonic freshwater crustaceans Daphnia: one dataset from clones of D. pulex and D.

Dispersion and sedimentation of titanium dioxide nanoparticles in freshwater algae and daphnia aquatic culture media in the presence of arsenate

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Nanoscience, 2018
Little information is available on Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (nTiO2) behavior in different culture media for aquatic organisms. This study aimed to accurately evaluate nTiO2 dispersion and sedimentation in common freshwater algae (BG-11) and daphnia

The importance of calcium in improving resistance of Daphnia to Microcystis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Changing environmental calcium (Ca) and rising cyanobacterial blooms in lake habitats could strongly reduce Daphnia growth and survival. Here, we assessed the effects of maternal Ca in Daphnia on transfer of resistance to their offspring against ...

Visibility as a factor in the copepod-planktivorous fish relationship

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2005
The question we treat in this contribution is whether or not planktivorous fish can use the motion pattern of planktonic copepods to distinguish these animals from other suspended particles in the water.

Polarization Holographic 4D Phenotyping Reveals Nanoplastic Induced Dysfunction in Zooplankton

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Contaminant‐induced dysfunction in complex aquatic organisms remains difficult to resolve across scales. Polarization Holographic Imaging Microscopy (PHIM) integrates polarization‐sensitive holography with computational volumetric reconstruction for label‐free phenotyping of zooplankton in natural seawater, revealing that nanoplastic stress drives ...

Zn/Al‐NO3 Layered Double Hydroxide as Alternative Activator for Nitrile Rubber Vulcanization: Effect of the Accelerator‐to‐Sulfur Ratio on Curing Kinetics and Network Properties

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Zn/Al‐NO3 layered double hydroxide offers a low‐zinc alternative for sulfur vulcanization of nitrile rubber, reducing nominal zinc loading by an estimated 71%. Its potential as a vulcanization activator depends on the curing system: conventional curing preserves tensile strength despite slower kinetics, whereas efficient curing maintains comparable ...

Integration of Nutrition and Organic Agriculture Framework in Managing Gastrointestinal Nematodes in Ruminants

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Gastrointestinal nematode infections damage the gastrointestinal epithelial tissues of ruminants, affecting nutrient utilization and overall production performance. This review outlines host‐gastrointestinal nematode interactions and discusses integrated control strategies, including nutritional supplementation, grazing management, vaccines, and ...
