Retention of microplastics by biofilms and their ingestion by protists in rivers. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepBiofilms, which are ubiquitous in aquatic ecosystems such as rivers, may play an essential role in the fate of microplastics (MPs) and their ingestion by biofilm protists. A combination of field and laboratory experiments shows that riverine biofilms contain up to 10 times more MPs than ambient water and retain 6–12 times more MPs than surfaces without

Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 6, Page 2188-2209, December 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Multicellularity evolved multiple times in the history of life, with most reviewers agreeing that it appeared at least 20 times in eukaryotes. However, a specific list of multicellular eukaryotes with clear criteria for inclusion has not yet been published.

Journal of Aquaculture Science, 2021 Parasite infections in aquaculture can trigger primary infections due to decreased fish immunity making it easier for other microorganisms, both bacteria and viruses, to enter the fish's body.

Influence of Buffer-Protected Sodium Butyrate Supplementation in the Diet of <i>Penaeus vannamei</i>. [PDF]
Aquac NutrThis study aimed to determine the optimal inclusion level of protected sodium butyrate (PSB) in diets for Penaeus vannamei during the postlarvae to grow‐out phase. A completely randomized design was used with four dietary treatments: 0, 2, 4, and 8 kg/t of PSB (54% sodium butyrate). The PSB product (Novation SL 2002, Spain) contains 54% sodium butyrate

Diseases of the giant river prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii: A review for a growing industry
Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 15, Issue 2, Page 738-758, March 2023., 2023 Abstract The giant river prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, is a major focus of aquaculture in tropical and sub‐tropical regions around the globe. Over the last 30 years, culture of M. rosenbergii has increased exponentially as demand has risen both for domestic consumption and for international export trade.

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.

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 24, Issue 9, Page 4256-4273, September 2022., 2022 Summary Heterotrophic nanoflagellates (HNF) and ciliates are major protistan planktonic bacterivores. The term HNF, however, describes a functional guild only and, in contrast to the morphologically distinguishable ciliates, does not reflect the phylogenetic diversity of flagellates in aquatic ecosystems.

On the move: sloths and their epibionts as model mobile ecosystems
Biological Reviews, Volume 96, Issue 6, Page 2638-2660, December 2021., 2021 ABSTRACT Sloths are unusual mobile ecosystems, containing a high diversity of epibionts living and growing in their fur as they climb slowly through the canopies of tropical forests. These epibionts include poorly studied algae, arthropods, fungi, and bacteria, making sloths likely reservoirs of unexplored biodiversity.

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 13, Issue 3, Page 1488-1530, June 2021., 2021 Abstract The redclaw crayfish (Cherax quadricarinatus; hereafter redclaw), native to northern Australia and southern New Guinea, is among the largest freshwater decapods. It matures early and is considered highly prolific as females may lay over one thousand eggs in a single clutch.

Molecular Ecology, Volume 30, Issue 4, Page 1053-1071, February 2021., 2021 Abstract Microbial planktonic communities are the basis of food webs in aquatic ecosystems since they contribute substantially to primary production and nutrient recycling. Network analyses of DNA metabarcoding data sets emerged as a powerful tool to untangle the complex ecological relationships among the key players in food webs.
