Climate-related drivers of nutrient inputs and food web structure in shallow Arctic lake ecosystems [PDF]
In order to predict the effects of climate change on polar ecosystems, disentangling mechanisms of nutrient transfer in food webs is crucial. We investigated sources of nutrients in tundra lakes, tracing their transfer through the food web and relating ...

Mitochondrial genome diversity and evolution in Branchiopoda (Crustacea) [PDF]
Background The crustacean class Branchiopoda includes fairy shrimps, clam shrimps, tadpole shrimps, and water fleas. Branchiopods, which are well known for their great variety of reproductive strategies, date back to the Cambrian and extant taxa can be ...

Toward a global phylogeny of the "living fossil" crustacean order of the Notostraca. [PDF]
Tadpole shrimp (Crustacea, Notostraca) are iconic inhabitants of temporary aquatic habitats worldwide. Often cited as prime examples of evolutionary stasis, surviving representatives closely resemble fossils older than 200 mya, suggestive of an ancient ...

First Record of Triops cancriformis (Branchiopoda: Notostraca) in Qatar: Its Origin and Range Expansion Inferred From Genetics, Morphology, and Reproduction [PDF]
The presence of Triops cancriformis has not been broadly reported outside Europe or North Africa. Among the few exceptions, including the studies on the Middle Eastern populations, genetic information is almost completely absent.

Uncovering ultrastructural defences in Daphnia magna--an interdisciplinary approach to assess the predator-induced fortification of the carapace. [PDF]
The development of structural defences, such as the fortification of shells or exoskeletons, is a widespread strategy to reduce predator attack efficiency. In unpredictable environments these defences may be more pronounced in the presence of a predator.
