How wildlife respond to tropical cyclones: short‐term tactics and long‐term impacts

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT From butterflies to lizards and from sharks to seabirds, wildlife exhibit tactics to survive the impacts of tropical cyclones, also known as hurricanes, cyclones, or typhoons depending on where they occur. Some species seek refuge during the storm by moving, some remain in place and ride it out, and others move longer distances, avoiding the ...

Larvivorous potential of Metriaclima callainos and Cynotilapia afra as biological agents for mosquito control

Malaria Journal
Background Malaria remains a major health challenge in sub-Saharan African countries, including Malawi. Insecticides resistance is a significant challenge to malaria vector control. In Malawi, larval source management (LSM) is promoted as a supplementary

Diphyllobothrium latum in Italy: plerocercoids larvae distribution in perch (Perca fluviatilis) fillets

Italian Journal of Food Safety, 2013
Following the diffusion of new eating habits (consumption of uncooked, undercooked, marinated or cold-smoked fish), some cases of parasitic zoonosis from freshwater fish are recently reappeared in Italy.

Loss, persistence and reversal of phenotypic traits

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The irreversibility of complex trait loss has long been a tenet of evolutionary biology. However, this idea is increasingly at odds with the numerous documented exceptions across the Tree of Life. We synthesise this growing body of evidence across a diverse array of taxa and traits, exploring the evolutionary conditions that enable ...

Distribuição sazonal de zooplâncton, ovos e larvas de peixes na região centro-sul do Brasil (1975-77)

Brazilian Journal of Oceanography, 1980
Abundances of Zooplankton volumes, fish eggs and larvae were determined for 812 oceanographic stations on six survey cruises to the southern Brazilian continental shelf. Contour charts of Zooplankton volumes are presented.

Flight of the dragons: a global review of migration in Odonata

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insects are the most abundant and ecologically important animal migrants. Yet, we know relatively little about the patterns and processes underlying insect migration. Dragonflies (Anisoptera) and damselflies (Zygoptera) comprise the ancient insect order Odonata, whose ancestors were the first organisms to fly on Earth.

Efficacy of fish oil- and linseed oil-enriched Artemia nauplii on growth performance and stress resistance of tiger barb larvae (Puntius tetrazona)

International Journal of Aquatic Biology, 2013
Fish oil is the important fat source in fish nutrition. High demand for fish oil and low global supply arise a need of alternative oils in fish culture. Plant oils are a good candidate in this case.

Diffusion of Carbamazepine in Hydrophobic Zeolites: A Comparative Study Using Classical and Machine‐Learned Potentials

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Can hydrophobic, shape‐selective zeolites efficiently remove the persistent pharmaceutical CBZ from water? This work moves beyond the static picture of interaction energies by modeling diffusion with umbrella sampling and machine‐learned potentials. Even high intrinsic diffusion barriers can be overcome through exergonic adsorption from water, yielding

Enrichment of rotifers (Branchionus plicatilis), Artemia nauplii and artificial dry feed with live yeast (Debaryomyces hansenii) for the growth of cultured dusky kob (Argyrosomus japonicus) larvae

, 2013
Aquaculture has expanded dramatically over the last fifty years and now contributes almost half of the global total fish production. Since fish are a very important source of protein for humans, aquaculture is an important food source and economic ...
