Black soldier fly, Hermetia illucens, larvae meal improves intestinal health and growth performance of Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, juveniles

open access: yesJournal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 56, Issue 3, June 2025.
Abstract This study investigated the effects of dietary black soldier fly (BSF) larvae, Hermetia illucens, meal on growth performance, feed utilization, intestinal health, and immune response in Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, juveniles. The fish (initial weight: 7.28 ± 0.09 g) were reared in a recirculatory aquaculture system (RAS) and fed diets ...

Environmental DNA (eDNA) Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction‐Based Assays for Surveying 125 Taxa of Importance to North America

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 3, May–June 2025.
We present 125 eDNA quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) assays against animal species of importance to North America. We show how these assays were designed and validated to comply with the Canadian national eDNA standards to allow confident eDNA detection for coastal and inland ecological surveys and biosurveillance.

Tadpole Skin Secretions, Not Food or Temperature, Mediate Costly Cannibal‐Induced Plasticity in Invasive Cane Toad Hatchlings

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2025.
Hatchlings of invasive cane toads respond to the risk of cannibalism by accelerating development but experience significant negative carry‐over effects on fitness in the tadpole stage. Our experiments demonstrate that this hatchling response is induced by chemicals located in the skin of older cannibalistic tadpoles. This response is unique to cannibal

Anti‐Blackness, Canonicity, and (Mis‐)Identification in Emine Sevgi Özdamar's Ein von Schatten begrenzter Raum

open access: yesThe German Quarterly, Volume 98, Issue 2, Page 91-108, Spring 2025.
Abstract This essay explores the disturbing presence of anti‐Black language and tropes in Emine Sevgi Özdamar's recent, celebrated novel Ein von Schatten begrenzter Raum. Drawing on Toni Morrison's classic analysis in Playing in the Dark, I argue Özdamar's anti‐Blackness is characterized by a double‐valence: on one hand, Özdamar's anti‐Blackness ...
