Impacts of predator odours and conspecific disturbance cues on minnow thermal tolerance
Abstract Warming waters can affect fish community dynamics, potentially exacerbating predator–prey asymmetries in behavioural and physiological metrics of thermal tolerance. Further, differing responses of prey fish species to concurrent predation risk and warming highlight the need to understand these impacts in various contexts, especially with at ...

Abstract Quantifying the behaviour of animals in the wild can provide important information on their ecology and welfare. External biologgers that ‘pop‐off’ to enable tag retrieval have been widely used in marine systems; however, they have only recently been applied to freshwater fishes.

ABSTRACT Aquaculture systems suffer a wide range of losses, mostly due to bacterial disease outbreaks, and the use of disinfectants is a routine practice for controlling the spread of pathogenic organisms globally. Including Aeromonas hydrophila, Streptococcus agalactiae and Edwardsiella tarda, implicated for natural disease outbreaks and economic ...

CryoFluorSEM – A new approach for fluorescence and EM imaging of cryofractured plant samples
Abstract Cryo‐scanning electron microscopy (CryoSEM) permits the preparation and detailed imaging of bulky samples while keeping them in a hydrated state. For plant biology, cryofractures give information on cell ultrastructure and tissue organisation within a much larger context that is the whole organ or organism.
