Unlocking the genome of perch – From genes to ecology and back again
Ecology of Freshwater Fish, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 677-702, October 2023., 2023 Abstract Eurasian perch Perca fluviatilis has been a popular model species for decades in the fields of aquatic ecology, community dynamics, behaviour, physiology and ecotoxicology. Yet, despite extensive research, the progress of integrating genomic perspective into existing ecological knowledge in perch has been relatively modest.

A global review of problematic and pathogenic parasites of farmed tilapia
Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 15, Issue S1, Page 92-153, February 2023., 2023 Abstract Over the past 80 years, tilapia have been translocated globally for aquaculture; active production is recorded in >124 countries. Of 7 million tonnes of tilapia produced in aquaculture, 79% is from 79 countries outside the natural range of tilapia.

Freshwater Biology, Volume 67, Issue 8, Page 1316-1332, August 2022., 2022 Abstract Due to anthropogenic mechanisms, global freshwater biodiversity is declining, and non‐indigenous species are consistently cited as a major threat to native ecosystems. In particular, exotic freshwater gastropods and their parasites have invaded ecosystems through deliberate introductions and/or accidental transfer.

Unclear host taxonomy hinders parasite studies: An up-to-date checklist of the protozoan and metazoan parasites of Phoxinus minnows (Teleostei: Leuciscidae). [PDF]
J Fish BiolAbstract Phoxinus minnows are small freshwater fish found throughout Eurasia. The taxonomy of this genus is still under investigation, and new species are regularly described. They are frequently introduced outside their native range due to their use as live bait for angling, and such fish introductions can have diverse impacts on the recipient areas ...

Environmental DNA, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 627-641, May 2022., 2022 In this study, we develop an optimized eDNA‐based metabarcoding tool to detect and characterize the trematode communities from environmental and, more specifically water‐sediment interface samples. The efficiency of this new tool is first assessed by an exhaustive in‐silico and in‐vitro validation step and compare to a classical trematode monitoring ...

Eye fluke effects on Danish freshwater fish: Field and experimental investigations
Journal of Fish Diseases, Volume 44, Issue 11, Page 1785-1798, November 2021., 2021 Abstract Eye flukes in fish are common in freshwater lakes. Fish become infected by the penetration of cercariae released from freshwater snails, and high infection pressures may be associated with mortalities in a Danish lake. Examination of two other freshwater lakes, combined with laboratory study, supported the notion. We investigated 77 freshwater

Ligula intestinalis (Cestoda: Pseudophyllidea): an ideal fish-metazoan parasite model? [PDF]
, 2010 Since its use as a model to study metazoan parasite culture and in vitro development, the plerocercoid of the tapeworm, Ligula intestinalis, has served as a useful scientific tool to study a range of biological factors, particularly within its fish ...

Description of Tylodelphys darbyi n. sp. (Trematoda: Diplostomidae) from the threatened Australasian crested grebe (Podiceps cristatus australis, Gould 1844) and linking of its life-cycle stages [PDF]
Journal of Helminthology, 2019 Species of the genus Tylodelphys (Diplostomidae) have a cosmopolitan distribution. Metacercariae of these species infect the eye, brain, pericardial sac or body cavity of fish second intermediate hosts, and the adults are found in piscivorous birds of ...
