vvrr1, a small RNA, post‐transcriptionally represses the transcriptional regulator LeuO, which directly inhibits the VarS/VarA two‐component system. This triggers a Csr cascade that relieves LuxO repression, ultimately modulating exopolysaccharide production to control biofilm formation and virulence in Vibrio alginolyticus.

The Evolution of an Ancient Coastal Lake (Lerna, Peloponnese, Greece)
Degradation of coastal environments is an issue that many areas in Europe are facing. In the present work, an ancient coastal lake wetland is investigated, the so-called Lake Lerna in NE Peloponnese, Greece. The area hosted early agricultural populations

This review highlights critical “translational gaps” in understanding micro‐ and nanoplastics impacts on gastrointestinal diseases, bridging exposure, detecting, and mechanistic toxicology. Abstract Micro‐ and nanoplastics (MNPs) have become pervasive environmental contaminants with increasing evidence linking them to adverse health outcomes.

Augustovian Interglacial of Poland according to the study of molluscs fauna
Malacofaunistic research was passed out on the sediments exposed in the boreholes Zharnowo and Komorniki. The results of the study allow the author to join the opinion of those Polish researchers who said of the Augustovian deposits of the oldest in the Glaciopleistocene. Based on the concept of development of flora and fauna in one climatic cycle (the

Partners or passengers? Revisiting the association between diatoms and aquatic animals
ABSTRACT Numerous studies have revealed the importance of research on the communities capable of colonizing animal surfaces (epibionts) and the animals on which they live (basibionts). Very few studies have considered epizoic diatoms, and there are gaps and biases in our knowledge, including the choice of basibionts, the methods used, and the habitats ...

[Quantitative sypnosis of the Cuban ground mollusc fauna].
A systematically organized synopsis involving a numerical estimate of different taxons (a quantitative analysis per Prosobranchia and Pulmonata subclass families) is presented. Major groups regarding the number of species and/or subspecific types were determined.

Review of the fauna associated with wild and farmed mussels and oysters in the Mediterranean
ABSTRACT Mussels and oysters are important ecosystem engineers which modify the physical and chemical characteristics of the environment and create habitats that support highly diverse associated communities. In the Mediterranean Sea, the native Mediterranean mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis and the European flat oyster Ostrea edulis, together the ...

Evidence for adaptive explanations of semelparity in animals
ABSTRACT Semelparity, the reproductive strategy of reproducing once, is widespread but uncommon in animals. Classes of models to explain the evolution of semelparity are based either on age structure and mortality schedules – demographic models in which high post‐reproductive mortality risk favours high reproductive effort and semelparity results from ...
