Towards Automated Classification of Zooplankton Using Combination of Laser Spectral Techniques and Advanced Chemometrics [PDF]

Sensors, 2022
Zooplankton identification has been the subject of many studies. They are mainly based on the analysis of photographs (computer vision). However, spectroscopic techniques can be a good alternative due to the valuable additional information that they ...

DNA Metabarcoding Reveals Unexpected Predator-Prey-Microbial Dynamics in the Southern Right Whale (Eubalaena australis). [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Southern right whale (Eubalaena australis; SRW) populations are recovering from the impacts of commercial whaling, however, recovery has been spatially variable, with strong associations between reproduction and prey availability. The diet of SRWs has not been widely examined, and with SRW foraging shifting away from high‐latitude foraging ...

Optimal input DNA thresholds for genome skimming in marine crustacean zooplankton [PDF]

PeerJ
Crustacean zooplanktons are key secondary and tertiary producers in marine ecosystems, yet their genomic resources remain poorly understood. To advance biodiversity research on crustacean zooplankton, this study evaluated the effectiveness of genome ...

A new morphological phylogeny of Malacostraca comparing the application of character dependencies and implied weighting. [PDF]

Cladistics
Abstract Using a new character matrix composed of revised matrices of previous analyses and new morphological findings, the phylogeny of Malacostraca (Pancrustacea) is analysed anew with 207 characters for 35 terminal taxa across all recognized orders. Particular emphasis was placed on methodological versatility, including different degrees of implied ...

Systematic Position of the Euphausiacea [PDF]

Nature, 1955
ELSEWHERE in this issue of Nature (see p. 911) I have mentioned that, although the idea originated with Kemp, Gurney was the first to place the Euphausiacea in the order Decapoda, which he divided into two suborders, Euphausiacea and Eudecapoda. Gurney never intended to include the Euphausiacea in his Ray Society monograph, “Larvae of Decapod Crustacea”

MetaZooGene Intercalibration Experiment (MZG-ICE): Metabarcoding Marine Zooplankton Diversity of the Global Ocean. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT DNA metabarcoding of zooplankton biodiversity is used increasingly for monitoring global ocean ecosystems, requiring comparable data from different research laboratories and ocean regions. The MetaZooGene Intercalibration Experiment (MZG‐ICE) was designed to examine1 and analyse patterns of variation of DNA sequence data resulting from multi ...

The Vertical and Horizontal Distribution of Deep-Sea Crustaceans in the Order Euphausiacea in the Vicinity of the DeepWater Horizon Oil Spill

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
The vertical and horizontal distributions of Euphausiacea in the northern Gulf of Mexico (GOM), including the location of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, were analyzed from 340 trawl samples collected between April and June 2011. This study is the first

The complete mitochondrial genome of a euphausiid species: Pseudeuphausia sinica (Euphausiacea: Euphausiidae) [PDF]

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
We describe the mitogenome sequence of Pseudeuphausia sinica collected in the adjacent waters of the Yangtze River Estuary. The assembled mitogenome is 16,192 bp in length and consists 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer-RNA genes, 2 ribosomal-RNA genes,

Preliminary Ecological Data on the Cocco's Lanternfish Lobianchia gemellarii (Cocco, 1838) (Osteichthyes: Myctophidae) in Mediterranean With New Records in the Northern Ionian Sea. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This paper presents preliminary ecological data on the Cocco's lanternfish Lobianchia gemellarii (Cocco, 1838) (Osteichthyes: Myctophidae) in the Central Mediterranean and its first records from the northern Ionian Sea. This study also provides information and a new contribution to the knowledge on the role of the species in the Mediterranean marine ...
