Bioenergetics of Euphausia superba and Euphausia crystallorophias in the Ross Sea

Diversity, 2023
Krill species are key organisms in the Antarctic food web. Biochemical composition in terms of lipids, proteins, carbohydrates, and fatty acids and its implications for spatial distribution were investigated in specimens of Euphausia superba and ...

Emerging Pollutants in Chinstrap Penguins and Krill from Deception Island (South Shetland Islands, Antarctica) [PDF]

Toxics
This study aimed to evaluate the presence of emerging pollutants [perfluorinated compounds, phthalates and bisphenol A (BPA)] in chinstrap penguins (Pygoscelis antarctica) and krill (Euphausia superba) from Deception Island (South Shetland Islands ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of the ice krill Euphausia crystallorophias Holt & Tattersall, 1906 (Euphausiacea, Euphausiidae), from the Ross Sea, Antarctica [PDF]

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources
The mitogenome of Euphausia crystallorophias collected from the Ross Sea Region Marine Protected Area (RSR MPA) is described for the first time. The assembled mitogenome was 17,291 bp in length and consisted of two ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), 22 transfer ...

Size selection of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) in trawls. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Trawlers involved in the Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) fishery use different trawl designs, and very little is known about the size selectivity of the various gears.

Cloning and Characterization of Chitin Deacetylase from Euphausia superba. [PDF]

Int J Mol Sci
Chitin deacetylase (CDA) can catalyze the deacetylation of chitin to produce chitosan. In this study, we identified and characterized a chitin deacetylase gene from Euphausia superba (EsCDA-9k), and a soluble recombinant protein chitin deacetylase from Euphausia superba of molecular weight 45 kDa was cloned, expressed, and purified.

Monitoring Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) distribution in the Southern Ocean: environmental DNA (eDNA) adds to the toolbox [PDF]

Frontiers in Marine Science
Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba Dana) is a key species of the Southern Ocean ecosystem, immensely abundant and targeted by the krill fishery. For their sustainable management, krill distribution and biomass estimates are required, typically achieved ...
