ABSTRACT Florida's regulatory framework requires the establishment of minimum flows to protect aquatic ecosystems and water resources from significant harm. One of the primary methods used to evaluate significant harm is assessment of instream habitat, which relies on Habitat Suitability Criteria (HSC) curves that relate flow regimes and habitat ...

The catch of the day: The shortcomings of promoting sustainable seafood consumption in Peru
This study investigates the meaning and application of “catch of the day” in Peru by analyzing 233 news articles and genetically testing 43 fish samples from restaurants. Results show that media frequently use the term as a vague marketing phrase, while genetic testing reveals a 60% mislabeling rate. These findings suggest that “catch of the day” lacks

Dietary resilience of coral reef fishes to habitat degradation
Metabarcoding of gut contents shows that two common benthic‐feeding reef fishes with different feeding stratgies—a butterflyfish (Chaetodon capistratus) and a hamlet (Hypoplectrus puella)—shift diets on degraded reefs. These shifts mirror contrasting patterns in body condition: butterflyfish showed strong individual variation, whereas condition was ...

The scarcity of functional females in wild Centropomus undecimalis populations limits broodstock development for aquaculture. This study evaluated feminization of this protandrous hermaphroditic teleost under different salinity conditions using 17β‐estradiol (E2), administered orally to juveniles and via intramuscular implants to adults.

The Interplay of Biotic and Abiotic Factors in Shaping Genetic Variation at 6Pgdh in the Bulb Mite
We used experimental evolution to track changes in 6Pgdh allele frequencies in bulb mites over 13 generations under different temperatures and sexual selection intensities. Our results show that the F allele increases in frequency only at low temperatures under strong sexual selection, indicating that the maintenance of genetic variation in this system

Measuring juvenile habitat quality for fishes and invertebrates
ABSTRACT Identifying the role of marine and estuarine habitats in supporting fish and invertebrate populations during vulnerable juvenile life stages is essential to achieve effective conservation and fisheries management. There remains general agreement that: (i) the quality of juvenile habitat is best measured as the contribution of juveniles to ...

Infection dynamics of endosymbionts that manipulate arthropod reproduction
ABSTRACT A large proportion of arthropod species are infected with endosymbionts, some of which selfishly alter host reproduction. The currently known forms of parasitic reproductive manipulations are male‐killing, feminization, cytoplasmic incompatibility, parthenogenesis induction and distortion of sex allocation.
