Joint effects of elevated copper and temperature in juvenile Tambaqui exposed in black and white waters of the Amazon

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study aimed to investigate how exposure to elevated water temperature and metal concentration jointly affect the physiology of Amazonian fish. Aboard a research vessel in the Amazon, we evaluated the effects of water temperature (river T°C at 31.5°C and a + 4°C increase to 35.5°C) and of 3‐h copper (Cu) exposure (up to 600 μg/L) in ...

Manaus: Metropolis van het regenwoud

Geografie (Kon.Ned.Aardrijkskundig Genootschap), 2012
Een miljoenenstad midden in de jungle: hoe kan zoiets bestaan? De enclavepositie als vooruitgeschoven post in de Amazone en taxfreezone heeft Manaus economisch op de kaart gezet, zonder dat de omringende natuur daar zwaar onder leed. Als Manaus straks wordt aangesloten op het nationale wegennet, zal dat drastisch veranderen.

Flavobacterium oreochromis From Farmed Tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum): Insights Into Genetic, Phenotypic and Pathogenic Diversity

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flavobacterium spp. are the etiological agents of columnaris disease. Although there is evidence that columnaris poses a significant threat to the farming of tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum), there remains a large gap in understanding the genetic and phenotypic diversities of columnaris‐causing bacteria (CCB).
