Isotope niche dimension and trophic overlap between bigheaded carps and native filter-feeding fish in the lower Missouri River, USA. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Stable carbon and nitrogen isotope values (δ13C and δ15N) were used to evaluate trophic niche overlap between two filter-feeding fishes (known together as bigheaded carp) native to China, silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) and bighead carp ...

Occurrence of non‐native fishes in the Danube east of Vienna (Austria) and potential interactions of invasive gobiids with native fishes [PDF]

Journal of Applied Ichthyology, 2019
Non-native fish species pose a major threat to local fish populations and aquatic ecosystems in general. Invasive gobies are a particular focus of research, but with partly inconsistent results. While some studies reported severe detrimental impacts on native species, others have concluded less serious or neutral effects.

Fish trophic structure and potential competitive interactions in a typical subtropical river [PDF]

NeoBiota
Invasive non-native fish species are key drivers of biodiversity decline and functional homogenization in freshwater ecosystems. As a typical subtropical coastal river, the Jiulong River Basin faces a high risk of non-native fish invasions, with tilapia ...

Spatial distribution and introduction pathways of non-native freshwater fish species in China

Water Biology and Security
Non-native freshwater fish species are regarded as a key factor responsible for the degradation of freshwater ecosystems. Although research on China's non-native freshwater fish species has been conducted at the national scale, the spatial distribution ...

Mucus phosphoproteins as an indirect measure of endocrine disruption in native small-bodied freshwater fish, exposed to wastewater treatment plant and pulp and paper mill effluents

Gayana, 2019
Environmental monitoring programs commonly use fish to study the health of aquatic systems. Nevertheless, lethal sampling techniques are often employed, resulting in ethical considerations.

Phenotypic and Transcriptomic Analysis Revealed a Lack of Risk Perception by Native Tadpoles Toward Novel Non‐Native Fish

Ecology and Evolution
The introduction of alien species poses a serious threat to native biodiversity, and mountain lake systems in the southwest of China are particularly vulnerable to the introduction of non‐native fish.

Risk Screening of the Non-Native Fish in the Jiulong River Basin of Southeast China

Animals
Non-native fish species introduced into new areas, especially when they develop into large populations, pose a threat to native fauna. Understanding the current status of the fish community and invasion risks of non-native fish are essential for invasive
