Abstract Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) contamination of aquaculture feed poses serious health risks to fish and consumers. In this study, the efficacy of a novel anti‐mycotoxin agent specific for aquatic species (AM‐AQ) containing bentonite, sepiolite, and orange peel meal (Citrus Sinensis) in alleviating AFB1 toxicity in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) was

Abstract Leaves, epilithon, macrophytes, and fine benthic organic material are central ecosystem compartments to food webs and mediate nutrient fluxes in streams. Most estimates of gross primary production (GPP) and ecosystem respiration (ER) are made at a reach scale, averaging across compartments.

Abstract One of the objectives of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) breeding programs is selection of lines with superior agronomic traits that are adapted to different environmental conditions. Thus, the aim of this study was to verify the applicability of factor analysis as a strategy to assist the selection of common bean lines for multi‐traits in
