Application of the DEB-TKTD model with multi-omics data: Prediction of life history traits of Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) under different salinities

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Saline-alkaline aquaculture plays a crucial role in the ecological restoration of saline soils, yet high water salinity can significantly restrict the growth of cultured organisms.

Offspring production in three freshwater crab species (Brachyura: Pseudothelphusidae) from the Amazon region and Central America

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2010
Freshwater crabs are an important component of the fauna of limnic environments, and out of the two true freshwater crab families present in the Neotropics, Pseudothelphusidae is the most diverse.

Is DNA metabarcoding an option for formaldehyde‐preserved zooplankton time series?

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract The recovery of amplifiable DNA from formaldehyde‐fixed (FF) zooplankton samples has long been considered problematic, but advances in degraded‐DNA retrieval have renewed interest in FF samples. To access the information stored in long‐term zooplankton time series, we evaluated methods for extracting amplifiable DNA from community samples ...

Complete mitochondrial genomes from two species of Chinese freshwater crabs of the genus Sinopotamon recovered using next-generation sequencing reveal a novel gene order (Brachyura, Potamidae)

ZooKeys, 2017
Recent morphological and molecular evidence has challenged classical interpretations of eubrachyuran phylogeny and evolution. Complete mitochondrial genomes of two species of potamid freshwater crabs, Sinopotamon yaanense and Sinopotamon yangtsekiense ...

Interplanetary frontiers: terraforming from an invasion science perspective

Oikos, EarlyView.
The pursuit of a multi‐planetary existence represents one of humanity's greatest frontiers. If applied justly, it offers an opportunity to extend its civilization's lifespan amid escalating sustainability crises on Earth. One approach increasingly gaining traction is terraforming, a hitherto theoretical ecological and evolutionary experiment revolving ...

The feasibility of developing multi-taxa indicators for landscape scale assessment of freshwater systems [PDF]

, 2011
The use of bird assemblages as wetland indicators is now well established in the UK.  An indicator based on a single taxonomic group can, however, have limitations.  Conversely, a multi-taxa approach can potentially provide a more robust ...

PREDATION ON SNAKES BY THE FRESHWATER LAND CRAB EUDANIELA GARMANI [PDF]

Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2003
Abstract We recorded the incidence of predation on snakes by the amphibious freshwater land crab Eudaniela garmani (manicou crab) in the rainforests of the Caribbean island of Tobago during 168 days of field observation (spanning a 4-year period) conducted between the hours of 08.00 AM and 12.00 noon and 21.00 PM and 23.30 PM.
