Global consequences of dam-induced river fragmentation on diadromous migrants: a systematic review and meta-analysis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The global proliferation of dams has altered flow and sediment regimes in rivers, presenting a major threat to freshwater biodiversity. Diadromous species, such as fishes, decapod crustaceans and gastropods, are particularly susceptible to fragmentation because dams obstruct their breeding migrations between coastal waters and rivers. Although

Abstract A feeding trial with Macrobrachium acanthurus juveniles was performed to determine growth performance and utilization of diets varying in protein, lipid, and carbohydrate level. Twelve diets were formulated with three levels of protein (P) and supplemented with different proportions of lipids (L) and carbohydrates (C): P30‐L20‐C8, P30‐L15‐C19,

Welfare of Decapod Crustaceans with Special Emphasis on Stress Physiology
Despite the growing concern on animal welfare in crustacean farming, both from legislative bodies as well as the common public, studies on welfare are limited and transfer to routine farming is missing. While biocertification schemes such as the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) involve a welfare dimension, these dimensions cannot be communicated ...
