Microbial communities and functional diversity in seafood
Abstract Functional diversity encompasses ecosystem processes that enhance adaptability to environmental change. This study explores the diversity of microorganisms associated with seafood. In this paper, we present our knowledge of microbial diversity in relation to seafood.

The cost of parasites – Metazoan parasite community of anadromous Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) from Northern Norway [PDF]
Anadromous salmonids migrating in the marine system to feed are at risk of accumulating trophically transmitted parasites that may have negative effects on the salmonid host.

Endoparasite fauna of Brycon amazonicus and B. melanopterus(Characidae, Bryconinae) from Negro and Solimões rivers, Amazon, Brazil [PDF]
Congeneric host species present similar biological and behavioral aspects, what may favor the presence of a similar parasite fauna. The aim of the present study was to compare the composition and structure of the parasite community from congeneric ...

Host-specificity of metazoan parasites infecting mullets of Kerala, India [PDF]
Eight species of mullets occurring in the estuarine habitats of Kerala, India, were examined for the presence of metazoan parasites. Of the 50 species of metazoan parasites encountered, 18 (36%) were oioxenic and 6 (12%) euryxenic; 48% of the parasites ...

ABSTRACT Filamentous, anastomosing spar‐filled networks in Phanerozoic carbonates have been interpreted as the mineralised remains of keratose (non‐spiculate) sponges, yet their recognition remains contested because fabrics of broadly similar appearance may arise from microbial, diagenetic or physical processes. This study combines direct fossil–modern

Benthic megafauna and the functioning of macroalgal forests and urchin barrens
Two temperate rocky reef food‐web models, representing the trophic diversity of the Mediterranean rocky reef communities, were built for the two stable states: macroalgal forests and barren grounds, which are characterized by opposite amounts of erect macroalgal biomass.
