Transcriptomics reveals the mechanism of selenium-enriched Lactobacillus plantarum alleviating brain oxidative stress under cadmium stress in Luciobarbus capito

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2022
Cadmium (Cd) is one of toxic metal in environment and is thought to affect nervous system. There were an increasing number of studies on selenium (Se)-enriched probiotics which were believed to produce bioactive nanoselenium.

Under threat in North African reservoirs: The decline of the Algerian barb, Luciobarbus callensis (Actinopterygii, Cypriniformes, Cyprinidae), in Tunisia as a case study [PDF]

Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria
Despite numerous studies on stocked freshwater fishes in Tunisian reservoirs, the population status of native species remains poorly documented. This study aims to address a critical knowledge gap by assessing the decline in the population of the endemic

Improving Whole Biodiversity Monitoring and Discovery With Environmental DNA Metagenomics. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) metagenomics sequences all DNA molecules present in environmental samples and has the potential of identifying virtually any organism from which they are derived. However, due to unacceptable levels of false positives and negatives, this approach is underexplored as a tool for biodiversity monitoring across the tree of

Mito-nuclear sequencing is paramount to correctly identify sympatric hybridizing fishes [PDF]

Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2018
Background. Hybridization may drive speciation and erode species, especially when intrageneric sympatric species are involved. Five sympatric Luciobarbus species—Luciobarbus sclateri (Günther, 1868), Luciobarbus comizo (Steindachner ...

Revisiting the species list of freshwater fish in Israel based on DNA barcoding

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2023., 2023
This study established a DNA barcoding database for freshwater fishes in Israel. Molecular and morphological species identifications were compared, and discrepancies were found for samples in five genera, which suggests significant reconsiderations to the species list in Israel and the region.

Host-specific Dactylogyrus parasites revealing new insights on the historical biogeography of Northwest African and Iberian cyprinid fish

Parasites & Vectors, 2017
Background Host specificity in parasites represents the extent to which a parasite’s distribution is limited to certain host species. Considering host-specific parasites of primarily freshwater fish (such as gill monogeneans), their biogeographical ...

Captive breeding of European freshwater mussels as a conservation tool: A review

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 33, Issue 11, Page 1321-1359, November 2023., 2023
Abstract Freshwater mussels are declining throughout their range. Their important ecological functions along with insufficient levels of natural recruitment have prompted captive breeding for population augmentation and questions about the usefulness and applicability of such measures.

Long‐term monitoring on a new channelized stream section: changes in mesohabitat, composition, and size structure of fish assemblages

Restoration Ecology, Volume 31, Issue 8, November 2023., 2023
The construction of riverine structures (weirs, bridges, or channelization) on riverbeds causes alterations in the flow regime and channel geometry. Once a new stretch is created, species must colonize it. The ecological succession processes that are entailed are decisive for adequate recovery after alterations, and understanding these processes would ...
