The role of refuges in biological invasions: A systematic review

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 32, Issue 8, Page 1244-1271, August 2023., 2023
Abstract Aim Ecological refuges buffer organisms against stressors and mediate a range of species interactions. However, their role in the context of biological invasions has yet to be synthesized, despite the increasing prevalence and impact of non‐native species.

Do alien species affect native freshwater megafauna?

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 68, Issue 6, Page 903-914, June 2023., 2023
Abstract 1. Freshwater megafauna species (i.e., animals that can reach a body mass ≥30 kg, including fish, reptiles, mammals, and amphibians) play important roles in freshwater systems (e.g., by influencing habitat structure, trophic dynamics, or the dispersal of smaller species).

Regulation and Regeneration in the Ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi

open access: yesDevelopmental Biology, 2000
Lobate ctenophores (tentaculates) generally exhibit a remarkable ability to regenerate missing structures as adults. On the other hand, their embryos exhibit a highly mosaic behavior when cut into halves or when specific cells are ablated. These deficient embryos do not exhibit embryonic regulation, and generate incomplete adult body plans.

KEY ELEMENTS OF A SIMULATION MODEL OF HYDROLOGICAL FACTORSOF THE NORTHERN CASPIAN AS ENVIRONMENT HABITAT OF THE СTENOPHORA POPULATION MNEMIOPSIS LEIDY

open access: yesЮг России: экология, развитие, 2014
Analysis of environmental situation in the Caspian and other basins (the Azov and Black Sea ones) showed that the development of an adequate simulation model of hydrological factors in the Northern Caspian as Mnemiopsis leidyi habitat was impossible ...

Evaluating impacts of non‐native submerged aquatic vegetation on native nekton

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2023., 2023
Abstract The introduction and spread of non‐native species restructure native ecosystems and can be particularly impactful when invaders are ecosystem engineers or habitat‐forming species. In coastal, estuarine, and marine systems, submerged aquatic vegetation (SAV), like macroalgae and seagrasses, form key habitats for nekton, serving as nurseries ...

Response of Mnemiopsis leidyi larvae to light intensity changes

open access: yes, 2020
A possible response to light of larvae of Black Sea ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi of two age groups (first to fourth day and one-two weeks after hatching) was experimentally studied. The larvae were placed in a Petri dish with seawater, in which two areas

Salinity gradient of the Baltic Sea limits the reproduction and population expansion of the newly invaded comb jelly Mnemiopsis leidyi. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The recent invasion of the comb jelly Mnemiopsis leidyi into northern European waters is of major public and scientific concern. One of the key features making M. leidyi a successful invader is its high fecundity combined with fast growth rates. However,
