The role of selenium in nutrition – A review

Acta Universitatis Sapientiae: Alimentaria, 2018
The role of selenium has been changed over the last decade. The element that was previously considered to be toxic turned out to be present in the human body in amounts of 10–15 mg, and almost every cell of our body contains it.

Monitoring small‐scale fisheries through participatory, app‐based surveys in the tropical archipelago of São Tomé and Príncipe

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Small Island Developing States have limited capacity to monitor Small Scale Fisheries, despite their high dependence on marine resources. Participatory monitoring of Small Scale Fisheries can fill data gaps while integrating resource users into fisheries management.

Home ranges, feeding sites, and daily movement behavior of the highly threatened Livingstone's fruit bat revealed through GPS tracking

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Livingstone's fruit bat GPS tracks during day‐ and nighttime on Anjouan, Comoros, identifying likely feeding sites. Abstract The highly threatened Livingstone's fruit bat, Pteropus livingstonii, is endemic to only two islands of the Union of the Comoros, a country with some of the highest deforestation rates worldwide.

Management Implications of Mesopelagic Forage Fisheries for Bigeye Tuna Stocks

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many large marine predators forage on mesopelagic fish stocks, including commercially valuable tunas. The mesopelagic is under increasing interest for commercial exploitation, given its large biomass with potential to supply fishmeal for aquaculture feed or fish oil.

Potential impact of Stratospheric Aerosol Injection on horticultural crop suitability in Africa

The Geographical Journal, EarlyView.
Short Abstract Global warming will be devastating for horticultural crops in Africa; however, the injection of sulphur into the atmosphere has been proposed as stop‐gap solution that may help reduce the warming. This intervention may lead to an increase (~0.2) in Suitability Index Values (SIV) of mango and tomato over West and central Africa.

Acute freshwater CO2 exposure does not impair seawater transfer in three different sizes of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) subjected to different photoperiod manipulations

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract There is a growing interest in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture to extend the time fish are reared in freshwater (FW) recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), producing larger FW salmon that can then be induced to undergo smoltification before transfer into marine net pens for grow‐out and harvest.

Proteomic analysis of the zone of degeneration at the mitosis–meiosis transition stage in wild‐caught male catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula), correlated with an unusually high‐water temperature in the English Channel

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the context of current global change, variations in water temperature are one of the environmental conditions with serious consequences for marine life, including reproductive processes. In the small spotted catshark Scyliorhinus canicula, spermatogenesis occurs in spermatocysts composed of synchronously developing germ cells associated ...
